This week’s posted CodeGuru articles:

==> Database

– ADO.NET Generates SQL for You Via the
SqlCommandBuilder
   By Paul Kimmel
ADO.NET’s SQL
command builder reads a schema and generates SQL for you; this can be an
excellent timesaver in the appropriate circumstances. When applied with sound
judgment, this technique is a nice shortcut.

By Tom Archer

the PictureBox control make loading, displaying, and dynamically sizing an image
a snap.
