ADO.net in VS 2008

[vbguy2008]

I am looking for a beginners guide on ADO.net in VS 2008. I need code examples that explain how to access datasets programmatically and in general how to code with ADO.net in a desktop application environment and a SQL server database back end.

I am looking for basic information and best practices so I can get as comfortable with ADO.net as I am with ado 6.

If anyone knows of a link please share.

Thanks

You might also like to check out the Data Walkthroughs link in my signature. Just note that the simplest way for a beginner to handle data access is not exactly the same way as a professional developer in a team environment will do it in a large-scale business app. You'll learn more and adapt concepts as you go.
