Wow.

I was so distressed at all the new kinds of code I didn't even consider that it was the SQL syntax that was throwing a kink into things. Thank you very much!

Something I'm still pretty confused on though is the DataTable thing... most samples show a DataTable being added. But since I read that "The Tables collection pertaining to the DataSet class lists each of the tables that makes up the DataSet", doesn't that mean that when you fill the DataSet the DataTable object is already created for a table?

In my code, I've filled the DataSet with a Login, Password, and Role. My textbook only goes into how to bind a control instance to a DataSet. What if I just want to "look" at something? For instance, I'd like to be able to pull the value of Role into a variable so I can deal out priviliges later on based on that role.

What (if at all) is the syntax for examining that data without binding it?

Many many many endless thanks!
