Answer Posted / karna
data set a collection of datatables and we can edit the
data in the datatables and the same can be persisted to
databae using adapter in the disconnected maner by using
commandbuilder or insert,update,select command.
datareader is just the container for data,its readonly and
forwardonly curosr.this follows connected architecture,that
means when we are reading data from datareader at that time
connection should be kept open.
data reader can hold data from multiple tables and
datareader can hold more than one table.
Example:
string query="select * from employee;select * from student";
sqlcommand cmd=new sqlcommand(query,connection);
sqldatareader dr=cmd.executeReader();
if(dr.hasrows)
{
dr.read();
gridview1.DataSource=dr;
gridview1.Databind();
if(dr.nextresult)
{
gridview2.datasource=dr;
gridview2.databind();
}
}
dr'colse();
connection.close();
