ADO.NET 3.5 Cookbook 2nd Edition
This guide is strikingly different from other books on
Microsoft ADO.NET. Rather than load you down with theory,
the new edition of ADO.NET 3.5 Cookbook gives you more than
200 coding solutions and best practices for real problems
you're likely to face with this technology using Visual
Studio 2008 and the .NET 3.5 platform.
Organized
to help you find the topic and specific recipe you
need quickly and easily, this book is more than just a handy
compilation of cut-and-paste C# code. ADO.NET 3.5 Cookbook
also offers clear explanations of how and why each code
solution works, and warns you of potential pitfalls so you
can learn to adapt the book's problem-solving techniques to
different situations.
This collection of timesaving recipes covers vital topics
including:
Connecting to data
Retrieving and managing data
Transforming and analyzing data
Modifying data
Binding data to .NET user interfaces
Optimizing .NET data access
Enumerating and maintaining database objects
Maintaining database integrity
Ideal for ADO.NET programmers at all levels, from the
relatively inexperienced to the most sophisticated, this new
edition covers the significant 3.5 upgrade, including new
programming tools such as LINQ. ADO.NET 3.5 Cookbook offers
a painless way for those of you who prefer to learn by doing
when it comes to expanding your skills and productivity.
