I am new to .net. The new IDE gives me a lot of headache with the build
errors.
Where can I get additional help on these error?
For example, the following one seems easy to grasp, but I still have no clue
how to fix it. The sample I tried copy is in vb.net as: dr(i) =
dtOld.rows(y).items(i).tostring.

DataRow dr = dt.NewRow;

dr(i)=ds.Tables[0].Rows(y).Items(i).ToString;

'dr' denotes a 'variable' where a 'method' was expected

The task sounds so simpple. You want to assign value from one
dataset/datatable to another by looping through one field at a time. Either I
am supper stupid or the .net learning curve is close to 90 degree, hours has
passed without going nowhere.

The compiler is telling you that there's a function on the right side, and a
variable on the left. You need to change your line to:

dr(i)=ds.Tables[0].Rows(y).Items(i).ToString();

John,

Thank you for your reply.

That is how I started out, and I got the same error on that syntax.

On another forum, somebody pointed out that I should use [] instead of () on
the index. Because I am in C#.

dr[i]=ds.Tables[0].Rows[y].ItemArray[i].ToString();
instead of
dr(i)=ds.Tables[0].Rows(y).Items(i).ToString();

Notice, I have to subtitute Items with ItemArray because there is no Items.
I am not sure it will give me what I want.

Anyway, talking about clueless description, and helplessness on getting
help, to me, that is the reason I would not recommend migrating vb6 to dotnet.
