Find out weather a field exists

[rmatthew]

I need to find out weather a field exists in database table (given the fieldname and the table name, and a connection string to the database). Any ideas - I cant find a method in the framework to accomplish this.

Thanks

Guess I should clarify - I want to see weather a column exists

You can use the Contains function in the Columns collection, e.g.

if (MyDataSet.Tables["Customer"].Columns.Contains("Name")) 
{
...do something
}
