define dataset column for timestamp data type in MS SQL server

[John Yung]

All,

What kind of data type should I use to definde a timestamp (row version)
data-type in MS SQL Server for a column in a dataset?

I tried to define it as byte[], but MSDataSetGenerator is giving me the
"unable to convert xml file content to a DataSet" error.

Thanks,

John Yung

Hi John,

Go with base64Binary instead.
