The New thing

[Morten Snedker]

What is the difference between

Dim objDataSet As DataSet = New DataSet()
and
Dim objDataSet As New DataSet()
and
Dim objDataSet As DataSet()
Set objDataSet = New DataSet()

(if any?)

In the third example, there are 2 problems:

Dim objDataSet as DataSet() declares an array of dataset
So
Set objDataSet = New DataSet() would not work, since you would be trying to
assing one DataSet to a variable that holds an array of datasets. Also,
there is no need for 'Set' in VB.NET.

But, if you had it:

Dim objDataSet as DataSet
objDataSet = New DataSet()

Then all 3 would be equivalent.

But, if you had it:

Dim objDataSet as DataSet
objDataSet = New DataSet()

That was the case. Typo from my part. Thank you both for your input
and time.
