ADO.NET Using C# Training
Overview
This three-day intensive ADO.NET training course teaches the essential elements of ADO.NET such that at the end of the course the programmer is able to utilize its tremendous database manipulation powers to build effective database applications. The course includes a major case study demonstrating the use of ADO.NET in a realistic setting. It is current to .NET 2.0, Visual Studio 2005 and SQL Server 2005.
The course opens with an overview of ADO.NET and its relation to previous Microsoft data access technologies, including ADO. It includes a discussion of ADO.NET architecture, main interfaces and classes, and programming with both the connected and disconnected models. The database for the case study is introduced.
The next two chapters cover in detail Connection and Command objects, which are essential in both connected and disconnected database access scenarios. The following chapter covers DataReaders, which provide a fast, forward-only reading capability. Programming with DataReaders bears a close resemblance to programming with the vintage recordset object.
Then the course focuses on the backbone of ADO.NET: DataSet and its related classes, such as DataAdapter, DataTable, DataRow, DataColumn, DataRelation, TableMappings and ColumnMappings. DataSet is able to handle multiple tables while remaining disconnected. It is eminently suited for building highly scalable applications for the Web.
Transactions and concurrency are covered. The course concludes with a hands-on treatment of additional new ADO.NET features in .NET 2.0.

Teaching Process & Format:
A powerful learning cycle process is used repeatedly, first to integrate basic concepts, and then to reuse those concepts to master more advanced topics. Practical exercises will be performed to take the learned knowledge to the level of practical application. Detailed discussions will thoroughly deepen the understanding on which options are available at each step in the design process and which one to choose for a given situation and requirements.
Audience
This course is designed for experienced application developers and architects responsible for developing database applications in a Microsoft environment.
Prerequisites
Students should have a basic knowledge of SQL and of programming the .NET Framework using C#. The student should also understand the fundamentals of XML. To get full benefit from the case studies in the course the student should be able to write simple Windows Forms applications. A working knowledge of SQL Server is also desirable.
