Hi there,

I'm just starting to work with C# and the ADO.NET.

As a test project i've choosen a simple Customer-Management Application.

So here's my problem:

In my main form I have a DataGrid that should display all my Customers. I've used a DataSet with NO Database Connection, just codes it manually and using XML-Files for storing data.

I have a MainMenu and there I select "Add new Customer", wich opens a form to enter the Data and saves it in a DataSet (and in an XML-File).

How do I update the DataGrid in the Main Window, when a Customers has been enterd in my "frmAddCustomer" form?

I now create the Dataset for storing the Customer-Data in the btnSave_Click Method. Do I have to use the DataSet from the MainWindow...and if so HOW? :o)

Please help a newbie. :o)

Thanks in advance!

Kind regards,
Iceman

I use the ItemCommand event, for when the e.CommandName.ToLower() parameter equals "update" (when update button is clicked), you can do an update statement that way. For insertion, there isn't any default way of doing this. I found a way on Microsoft's web site (titled A truly Excel-like grid control, but don't have the link) that allowed you to do insertions in the grid.
