[dba-VB] Copy tables

Hi Stuart

That is what I imagined initially.
Problem is, however and to my surprise, that neither a DataSet nor a DataTable features an Update method.

So what to do? 
I can't believe you have to revert to pure SQL commands to write back an update of a DataSet or DataTable??

I think you need to follow with kunderT.Update to update the underlying database from the 
TableAdapter.
