    I am using V 1 with enhancement. Any ideas if there is a 'differences' list anywhere between 1 and 2?

    --Support for committing updates to a DataSet back to the database

    This is exactly what i added to V 1.0. I am curious to see how they coded this as we build custom stored proc names off the DataTable names.
