Question data adapters not available

[cinek]

I have created a design in blend 3. I'm editing the project in visual studio 2008. I have added a database. When I create a data adapter, it does not show in the toolbox, when I click on show all, the data adapters for the database are not available. I have tried doing it the same way, on a form created in visual studio 2008, and it works.... how can I make it work on the project designed in blend 3?

any ideas?

Do you actually mean TableAdapters? Are you saying that you created a typed DataSet and the corresponding TableAdapters are not added to the Toolbox? If so, is the DataSet itself added to the Toolbox? Have you built the project since adding the DataSet?

Follow the DW3 tutorial in my signature, section Creating a Simple Data App

At the end you will have a form that has a TABLEadapter, as jmc discusses.. DataAdapters are less often used (they are created inside tableadapters, when Visual Studio writes data access code into a tableadapter for you)
