Hi;

there is a way to save the dataset contents in a TXT format??

thanks....

Take a look at the DataSet.WriteXml Method: http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/de...texmltopic.asp

Another approach would be to iterate through the rows of each table in the dataset and save as comma separated value (.csv) file (for each table). This way, you can open the saved files in most of the standard spreadsheet programs like Excel and Lotus-1-2-3.

One possible issue with this approach is that you lose the data-type formatting of columns.
