Bin kahi baat
by Punit Ganshani

Le baitha hun kalaam aur kagaz, likhne pyaar ki baat…
Khat un tak pahunchta nahi, na samajhte hai bin kahi baat…
Wo yaad aate hai beete lamhe, wo lambi chalti hamari baat…

Kahin duur ride pe jaana, candlelight dinner ki raat…
Woh haste chehre pe aansu aana, ankho se kiya hua izhaar..
Wo baho me bitae hue do pal, aur ghani kesuo ki raat..

Kahan chale gae woh din, jab do pal me lete the saanse hazaar..
Ab pahuchta nahi sandesh un-tak, hua dil hataash…
Khat koi ja unko pad sunae, tab hoe puraan pyaas…

Le baitha hun kalaam aur kagaz, likhne pyaar ki baat…

Some of the key-benefits of Linq are:

- Unified querying of Objects, Database and XML eases the interaction between XML and databases.
- High performance
- Lesser time to code resulting in faster & improved productivity of developers.
- Ease of switching from Disconnected/Offline mode to Online mode in Smart Client applications.

Most Smart Client applications use XML as datasource in Offline mode & use SQL database in the Online mode. Since only the datasource name changes and other code remains AS-IS, it becomes easier to handle data.

Prerequisite for usage of sample application:
- AdventureWorksDb Database (SQL Server 2005)
