typed-Dataset VS Own access Database classes

Question

Hi i would like to know if it's better to use typed-dataset rather than Own access with Datareader and Store procedure?

Answer 1

Typed Datasets are alwaya a better option compared to using plain DataReaders.

Typed datasets gets you,

• abstraction over SQL queries and StoredProcedures and you call them by making function calls.
• freedom from managing connection-strings
• typed rerpresentation of each table which adds a great deal for type-safety at compile-time.
• and much more..
