Summary


There are programmers in this world who never have to access a database, who never worry about connections or transactions or record locking or INSERT statements or referential integrity. Yes, there are such programmers in the worldfive, maybe six at last count. All other programmers must include code that manages external data of some sort, whether in a relational database, or an XML file, or a configuration file. ADO.NET is one of the .NET tools that make such data management easy. It's a lot different from the old ADO system, and I am still not convinced that having disconnected data 100 percent of the time is the way to go. But when I consider the power and flexibility of ADO.NET, I can't help feeling sorry for those six programmers who never use databases.
