DataSet to DataRepeater, Help!
Ok, first time using data sets and repeaters here. Let me start with what I want to do, and finish with what I'm currently doing.
Goal:
-Have VB compile a data base based on 3rd party file information (have this script done, and will update database if file structure or info changes).
-Save database so it doesnt need to be recompiled later.
-Save database as CSV or Excel file for printing/viewing.
-Display Dataset information in DataRepeater so it can be viewed, edited by user
Issue:
-I create the dataset currently by code, and add entries by code. (so if I need to import the CSV file manually I can, but I rather not)
-Cant bind the data to the controls with in the DataRepeater.
I'm basically lost, did google searches and view tutorials, how-ever they all show methods for pre-constructed DataBases. I just need a Excel style layout, have rows as new data object, and columns as data field. So any help, examples, tutorial links would be GREATLY appreciated!
PS - I dont have office suite (only OpenOffice) so excel import is not possible, and running VB.NET EXPRESS 2008
