Hi everyone,

I have a strongly-typed dataset with 5 tables.  The relationships between
all the tables are already in the dataset.  I want to create a dataview to
bind to a datagrid (in a WinForm app) where the data is spread across
(joined) between 3 tables.  How can I create a view with a subset of the
data to be bound to the datagrid?

Just to spell things out, let's say I have tables 1, 2 and 3.  I basically
want the data grid to have 4 columns - table 1 - column 2, table 1 -
column 3, table 2 - column 3, table 3 - column 4.  Is there a way for me
to create a view for this?  I am not familiar with the DataRelation class,
so I'm not sure if that's what I want to use or should be looking at.

I don't need to filter the data by rows.  In essence, I just want to
create a table from all the existing tables in the dataset and filter out
columns (create a view).  Any ideas on how I can do this without resorting
to the ugliness of manually creating a table and iterating through all the
rows pulling out only the data I need?

Thanks in advance,
D.J. Stachniak
