Interesting issue. I can Clear or Reset the dataset or the datatables, but
what about clearing dataset tables that will not exist on the first pass?
For example, I populate some customer information into
ds.Tables("dtCustomers"), but every time a combo event occurs, I want to
flush the table and re-Fill it with new Customer data. Easy enough to do on
all succeeding passes once it has been created the first time
(ds.Tables("dtCustomers").Clear), but what's the most reliable way to
confirm whether or not the table exists so as to not create a null exception
on the initial Fill?
