hi
Data reader that is ado.net connected architecture.
Data set that is ado.net disconnected architecture.
Data set is slower than data reader because extra overheads like relations, multiple tables etc.
If we need to move back while reading records, "data reader" doesn't support this functionality.
DataReader provide forward-only and read-only access to data, while the Dataset can hold more then one
table.
I hope it is easy o understand
Thanks& Regards
