hello all,

is it possible to store the data that is entered in the form
for example
1. we have a datagridview in the form and we entered some values
during run time
2. form is closed
3. when next time the form is loaded is it possible to have the values
that are entered during last time.

thank you for any help

If the data that needs to be stored and retrieved is specific to each person
who uses the application, then this might be relevant.

If the data needs to be common across a group of users and accessible to all
of them, you need to save it to a common database. You could also use a
database for individual users, but you would need a way to identify which
database to use for each user.

It is possible.

However it depends what is the datasource.

If that is a dataset you can use the DataSet.WriteXML with its overloaded
function

ds.WriteXml("path", XmlWriteMode.DiffGram)

I hope this is what you mean
