I want to know how many differences is between ADO.NET in Visual Studio 2003
and ADO.NET in Visual Studio 2005. I work with asp.net aplications. Will my
applications work in VS2005?
I want to know, does VS 2005 (ado.net 2.0) have only NEW features or have
some differences. Will My database programs in VS 2003 work in 2005 or I
must to change many code?

I detail these differences in my book, but I think most people have not had
trouble migrating existing code to VS2005. HOWEVER, the development
paradigms and tools in VS2005 are very different in several respects when
compared to 2003. For example, the DataAdapter wizard has been deprecated
(hidden) and some of the (IMHO) useful development shortcuts were cut
(completely).
