Good afternoon,
I am generating a typed dataset from a stored procedure. The stored procedure may contain something like:
select t1.colA, t2.colA AS t2colA
from t1
inner join t2
on t1.key = t2.key
When I generate the typed dataset, the dataset knows whether t1.colA allows NULLs, but it always puts FALSE in AllowDBNull for t2.colA even if t2.colA allows NULL.
Is this because the column is aliased? Is there any way, from SQL, to hint to VS that the column allows NULL? We currently have to go in and update the column's AllowDBNull if we regenerate the table.
Thanks in advance.
Christian
