Building Data Driven Web Applications

Data Binding Techniques

The process of binding the data is the same regardless of the source. The most
commonly used objects are the following.

DataReader - provides a read-only, direct connection to the data source.
DataSet - accesses the data as multiple tables.
DataTables - can have relationships defined between the DataTable objects.
DataView - retrieves a subset of one of the tables within the DataSet

The final web pages should appear as follows:

DataReader.aspx DataReaderSQL.aspx DataReaderProducts.aspx

DataSetProducts.aspx InsertCat.aspx DeleteCat.aspx

EditCat.aspx

Reusable Components

Visual .NET allows you to create reusable, compiled components that create
objects, call stored procedures, and return data.
