I. Could some please throw some light on Typed and Un-Typed DataSet. Have
gone through couple of articles but still confused. Also, which one is better
to use?

II. Also I going through a form developed by a team member. Apparently he
has created couple of DataSet’s at design time. I am not used to this
practice and always initialize them at run time. Is there any benefit of
creating them at design time?

Please help. Thanks
 
Job,

With a typed dataset you can use the intelisence, what makes the change on
errors lower, while you can (in theorie) as with every class update them in
one place when there are by instance fieldname changes in your database. You
can as well add procedures, which than are not in every program.

(However the last two things are AFAIK hard to do using the designer because
that fits the actual field names to the typed dataset and will erase every
thing you added).

For the rest is it just a user dataset inherited from dataset.

Just my thought,

Cor
