I have a problem thats really starting to annoy. I have an update query which i use on a users table which has 20 fields but when making an update i only need to use 10. But when i create the fill, GetData query it seems to automatically generate the insert, update, delete queries with 20 arguments. I then go into the designer.cs file to change the code definition to accept 10 arguments but when i close the file and then open it again it reverts the code back to the original 20 arguments. How can i stop this from happening and get it to save my changes???
Thanks for any help

The file you are changing is autogenerated by VS, hence any change you make can eventually be overwritten.
This is the reason why since VS2005, these files are declared as PARTIAL classes.
What you need to do it to write your Update method (Name it slightly different, for example MyUpdate) in a partial class that has the exact same name as the generated class.
In your code, make sure that MyUpdate gets called instead of Update
