Getting Field Size in DataSet

kasie · June 29th, 2003, 06:24 AM

I know that you can get information about type of any field in the Dataset Table, but any one know can you access information about the field size as well, for example field A is System.String and has 30 chars long, when asking - it should return value of 30

Thanks in advance

Code:

    public int GetColumnLength(DataColumn dc)
    {
        if (dc.DataType.ToString()=="System.String")
        {
            return (int) dc.MaxLength;
        }
        else
        {
            return 0;
        }
    }
