hello,

does anyone know where i can find documentation on what sort of SQL
can be used on the filter & view methods for DataTables?

i see plenty of use of standard statements in use, but im interested
in knowing which helper-methods such as UPPER('foo'), etc...


thanks,
sm

Search .NET SDK document or VS help for "DataColumn.Expression"

sm,

For filtering DataTables are the DataView.Filter and the DataTable.Select.

However don't have the mistake that a DataTable is a kind of database. It is
not, it is just an OO class which can be wrapped in a DataSet and uses in
its collections the DataColumn class and the DataRow class.
