We will teach you the InfoPath Data Adapter architecture, new Data Adapters in InfoPath 2003 SP-1, and talk about reasons for using ADO.NET DataSets in a Web Service with InfoPath forms. See the advantages and the restrictions when using DataSets in InfoPath. You will also get an inside view of the InfoPath DataSet support implementation so you can see how this feature works in InfoPath.
