Generate Dataset

[Garry Dawkins]

Hey Frank, I'm a novice with this taking over someone elses application.
I'm attempting to add a dataset to a page. I have the query to populate
the page and I have the walkthrough instructions. Visual Studios does
not want to cooperate. This is what I'm following: To generate a
dataset
From the Data menu, choose Generate DataSet.
Tip If the Generate DataSet command is not enabled, click the page;
the page must have focus for the command to appear.
The Generate Dataset dialog box appears.
This is where my problem starts. I click the page but the Gen dataset
command is not enabled.

Hi,

Right click on dataadapter that has the query and choose generate datast
from popup menu.

Hi,

I'm having the same problem. When I right click the dataadapter and
choose "generate dataset" I get an alert box with the insightful
message "Unspecified error".

I added a field to a MS Access table that one of the dataAdapters on
the page used...

Thanks

Hi,

First of all, did you add this question to another question, because I get
this as an answer and it is obvious a question.

As answer probably there is some orphaned code in your application. Most
probably a class which you cannot see when in your solution explorer there
are hidden files.

To test if this can be it, than the most simple is to create a little
project and do what you did (and not building a difficult select string).

I hope this helps,

Cor
