Typed DataSets in VS2005

Hi all,

This post is sort of tangentially related to my earlier posts on
configuration files for DLLs.

Does anyone know how to create typed DataSets using VS2005's new DataSet
designer, but with the ability to configure the connection string via a
config file? The designer seems to hard-code the connection string into the
dataset itself, which just can't be right.

The typed DataSets created by VS2005 comes with a dll.config file that looks
as though it's trying to do something like that, and which is put with the
executable at compile time, but altering the connection string in there
doesn't appear to have any effect. We've seen lots of people asking this
question, but haven't found anyone answering it yet.


Thanks in advance





Peter
