hi guys, im new to ado.net. im just wondering if i bind a dataset to some control - say a form to edit patients information - and i edited ONLY the name field. then i pass the dataset back to the adapter to update. will the dataset update the whole row? or just the modified field(s)? the latter effect is desired since the application im working on is a realtime multiuser application. the situation im trying to avoid is say:

i have dataset of field A and field B. 2 users viewing exact same record at the moment. user 1 edit field A and user 2 edit field B. then user 1 update the data. when user 2 update the data as well, if the formal effect take place, field A will be reset to original while the latter will not.

thanks in advance. :)
