cycle through records in dataset

[jrwinterburn]

Hi Guys,

Another query! I have a windows form that has a dataset in it which has been populated from a stored procedure (using enterprise library). This dataset simply has several hundred rows. What I would like to do is, when pressing my "start" button, beging cycling through the records in that dataset (randomly), then when the "pause" button is pressed, pause at the current record and then display it.

Finally, when the "resume" button is pressed, the cycling through records continues, but from the record it paused at.

Is all this possible and feasible?

Thanks.

Jon

Yes it is. You could simply create an array containing all of the numbers from 0 to the number of rows, sort it randomly and then loop through the array (on a timer as otherwise it will do it too quickly).
