I m trying to fill DataSet which contains 2 tables with one to many relationship  I m using DataReader to achieve this        public DataSet SelectOne int id                DataSet result   new DataSet            using  DbCommand command   Connection CreateCommand                          command CommandText    select   from table1                var param   ParametersBuilder CreateByKey command   ID   id  null               command Parameters Add param                Connection Open                using  DbDataReader reader   command ExecuteReader                                  result MainTable Load reader                             Connection Close                      return result          But I ve got only one table filled up  How do I achieve my goal - fill both tables   I would like to use DataReader instead DataAdapter  if it possible

Filling a DataSet with multiple tables can be done by sending multiple requests to the database  or in a faster way  Multiple SELECT statements can be sent to the database server in a single request  The problem here is that the tables generated from the queries have automatic names Table and Table1  However  the generated table names can be mapped to names that should be used in the DataSet   SqlDataAdapter adapter   new SqlDataAdapter         SELECT   FROM Customers  SELECT   FROM Orders   connection   adapter TableMappings Add  Table    Customer    adapter TableMappings Add  Table1    Order     adapter Fill ds

If you are issuing a single command with several select statements  you might use NextResult method to move to next resultset within the datareader  http   msdn microsoft com en-us library system data idatareader nextresult aspx  I show how it could look bellow   public DataSet SelectOne int id        DataSet result   new DataSet        using  DbCommand command   Connection CreateCommand                  command CommandText      select   from table1 select   from table2                     var param   ParametersBuilder CreateByKey command   ID   id  null           command Parameters Add param            Connection Open            using  DbDataReader reader   command ExecuteReader                          result MainTable Load reader               reader NextResult                result SecondTable Load reader                                        Connection Close              return result

Method Load of DataTable executes NextResult on the DataReader  so you shouldn t call NextResult explicitly when using Load  otherwise odd tables in the sequence would be omitted   Here is a generic solution to load multiple tables using a DataReader      your command initialization code here        DataSet ds   new DataSet    DataTable t  using  DbDataReader reader   command ExecuteReader        while   reader IsClosed          t   new DataTable        t Load rs       ds Tables Add t
