I already have a sql database that has numerous views already created, and I can use the views providing I code the sql query direct.
Is there away through the data sets that would allow me to see and use the views?
At present I only see the database tables.

Many Thanks

In the data set editor there is a setting to show tables, views, stored
procedures or all or all. It is in the drop down list box labeled Type.
It is below the Available Items tree view.

That's very interesting - I think there may be a bug.
When I select 'ALL' types I just get tables ?
I have to select 'Views' to see views, one would have thought the 'All' option would have selected all types.
aah well.
Thanks Very Much for your help.
