update a progressbar on update a mssql table

[Robert Bravery]

Hi all,

I have a typed dataset. I update, and insert well over a hundred rows at a
time.
How can I indicate to the user, via progreesbar, of some sort of progress
of the update, as each row is updated to the server

Thanks
Robert

You need a progress bar for 100 rows?

Hmm.

Check out (if you using sql server at the back end db)

especially if you have a strong dataset, (and .GetXml() at your disposal.

if you're using 2005 , i'd switch OPENXML for

Inserting Many Rows
I said that where XML is really good is when you need to insert many rows.
So how would you do that? In fact you have already seen the basics. You use
nodes and value. Here is an example where I unpack a document with orders
and order details:

HI,

THanks
Well its testing phase first, But I suspect that this routine will
eventually, I know its not that big, be translating 5000-10000 rows at a
time.

BTW, in order to speed test this little app. On a 2.4 core 2 duo, 2 gig ram.
What kind of throuput should I be looking at.
I have no idea as to what is fast or what is slow, when it comes to dataset
updates etc
