is it possible to work with a dataset -table in a way that doesn't load
the entire content to memory?

My reason for asking is large amounts of data in the table.

No, it's not possible. DataSet is in memory database and it could only
exist in memory.
For large amount of data, consider using SQL Server CE which keeps data on
a storage device including flash cards.

Best regards,

Ilya
