Re: Getting Autoincrement ID in ADO.NET

William:

As I agree with you whole hartedly on that one, I still feel that hardware
and networking is moving tward providing back end support where that won't
be an issue. Also, Many experienced people who were slow to jump on the .NET
wagon mostly because they didn't want to learn the new environment. Many
also because they didn't want to deal with the lack of server side cursors
which I felt were frustrating at times anyway. Also because of how long it
took for COM to do it's garbage collection. Nothing I hated more than
getting up in morning after a long night of finaly getting something to work
only to see it explode before my eyes.

Anyways, I'm having a hard time with this whole concept of disconnected,
connected, statefull, stateless, data binding.

I'm only guessing that statefull is better for windows apps where the data
source is on a local network and stateless is better for web apps.. Thats
one of my questions. Also, I can't find a VB.NET example of a Data Access
Layer built for a windows app where SQL Server is on the local network. Are
DAL's better suited for web apps? Can you give us a pointer to an article
that clearly gives examples for both stateless and statfull DAL's for
windows apps(If one exists) that also shows how to bind the controle's to
the fileds in the datatable? Getting autonumber from parent seems to be an
often asked question. The solution seems simple for someone witrh maybe a
Customers -- Orders -- OrderDetails table. For me However, with one parent,
26 children and 12 lookup tables, well, you see? this leads to my next
point.

One quandrey for me is that MS advertised this new dev environment as with
all these new features for setting up relational data visually. Many people
went out and spent money(Paid someone to go out in the rain and get the cat)
only to find that people strongly recomend anything other than the use of
these new features. So, do I want to hard code my paticular app? No, I want
to get upset with Cor when he points me to an example that misses my needs
by one or two topics that I realy need help with.

Thanks

Bob
