Hi all, I'm completely new to developing using Visual Basic Express 2010 and SQL Server but keen to build on four years of developing in MS Access.

Am I right in thinking that creating 'datasets' is the equivalent of a query in Microsoft Access?

For example, if I have one dataset (dataset.primarydata) and some associated text boxes that i could create a second dataset (dataset.primarydatacontacts) with a WHERE in the dataset statement so as to be able to build a Form showing various PK/FK datasets?

Many thanks for any advice on what is "my first step".
