Boolean tableExists(string name){
Boolean success = false; int rows = ReportDS.Tables[name].Rows.Count; if (rows > 1)success =
true; return success;}
I'm using this code to determine if the datatable exists. When it hits ReportDS.Tables[name].Rows.Count; it throws an exception for Object Reference not set to an Instance of an object. The ReportDS is declared as
DataSet ReportDS = new DataSet();
above the tableExists declaration (global to the class)
Is there a better way accomplish what I'm trying to do I looked for a table.exists property, but have found nothing that seems to pertain to what I'm trying to do. Help would be appreciated.

Modified the above code to be
...
{
Boolean success = false;
if( ReportDS.Tables.Contains(name) )
success = true;
return success;
}
Amazing how quickly the answer comes ... after you've asked the question.
