Name

RelationName

Synopsis

string relationName = DataRelation.RelationName;

DataRelation.RelationName = relationName;

This is the name of the DataRelation. It’s primarily used to retrieve or remove a DataRelation object by name from the DataRelationCollection.

Example

The following code snippet retrieves a relation by its RelationName:

DataRelation dr = ds.Relations["Cat_Prod"];

Note

Often, the RelationName incorporates the parent and child column names, as in Customers_Orders. This convention isn’t required, however.
