Hi,

Without wanting to start a heated debate, I have the following
question:

I am going to use a DataSet in my application. The table structure
will be fixed. It will be a small, simple database, consisting of a
few, 10 at most, tables, and some simple relationships between them.

I can create a DataSet using the designer, but I can also write code
to create it. Is there a preferred way? Put another way: does one
method offer benefits over the other (other than the designer being
quicker and easier -for me- in the development stage)?

I would always use the Designer when it's capable of generating the data
structures I want.
