    New to DB's: Saving data as file in VB .NET

    Hello all,

    Here is a stupid question from someone who is new to using databases and with VB .NET (I know how to use VB .NET quite well)...

    I have a DataSet control with my database. I want to save this database as a file. And be able to put it the data back into the DataSet control from that file later on. The file will be stored locally.

    It's that easy, but I can't seem to find the answer by searching MSDN nor these forums.

    Thanks for the help,
    Alex.
    No matter how fool-proof your program is, there will always be a better fool.
