Hi All,
I wanted to get readonly copy of a Dataset instance. Dataset has a Copy
Function which can give me a give me a copy of the dataset but I did not
find a way to make it readonly.

I found a workaround like below is there a better way to do this ?
Thanks in advance,
Praveen

foreach(DataTable DT in CP.Tables)
{
foreach(DataColumn DC in DT.Columns)
{
DC.ReadOnly = true;
}
}
 
If you are talking about UI-readonly then you might put BindingSource (.net
2) in between and set it as readonly.
Or you can just lock UI consumer - depends on the consumer.
 
The dataset that I am using does not bind to the any UI. I am using that in
a dll.

Regards,
Praveen

Hi Praveen,

Then the only way is to set all the DataColumns in all Tables to be
readonly.
