Answer 2

This should work:

-------------
SELECT count(*)
FROM information_schema.columns
WHERE table_schema = 'database_name'
AND table_name = 'table_name';
-------------

Just replace database_name and table_name with the actual names for your database and table.

Um... well... your question is a bit vague. Generally speaking, get experience with Entity Framework. Datasets are part of EF.

LINQ to SQL really isn't something used in development projects I've been involved in. It's good for quick prototyping. But so is EF.
