What is the difference between Dataset and Recordset?
Answer Posted / sathiyapriya
The Recordset was not XML-based and could not be serialized
to XML easily or flexibly.
Finally, a Recordset was not independent of a data store
because it tracked a Connection object
and through its methods could send queries to the data
source to populate, update,
and refresh its data.
To that end, the Recordset contained functionality found in
the ADO.NET DataSet,
data reader, and data adapter objects.
Similar to the DataSet, a Recordset could be disconnected
from its data store
and therefore act as an in-memory cache of data.
Of course, it could also be used in a connected model
depending on the cursor options that were set.
Although the Recordset object stored multiple versions of
each column for each of its rows,
it was not by nature able to represent multiple tables
without the use of the Data Shape Provider.
