Does anybody know of good tools/plugins to organize the dataset designer in Visual Studio 2008? Right now it's a big jumble of TableAdapters without relationship views - it would be very cool if there was a tool available that could organize it, kinda like how it's done in SQL Server Management studio's 'Diagram' pane.

Cheers, WT

I'm not sure if you are aware of it, but in Visual Studio when you add a new DataSet you can use the Configure option of the TableAdapter. Using that you can see the Query designer which helps with what you want.

If that's not it, I remember using Altova for something like that. This might help you: http://www.altova.com/ Or this: http://www.stylusstudio.com/

  • Hi, yes, I was aware of the "Configure" option. I was referring to the graphical organization of DataTables and TableAdapters in the Dataset. Do these tools help with that? – Donnie Thomas Jan 28 '11 at 05:41
  • I think they can help since the Dataset is XML and XSD. Trying the demos won't hurt :) – Hasan Feb 02 '11 at 11:02
