The recordset itself is a collection of data retrieved from a specified database. It can include an
entire database table, or a subset of the table’s rows and columns. These rows and columns are
retrieved by means of a database query that is defined in the recordset. Database queries are
written in Structured Query Language (SQL), a simple language that allows you to retrieve,
add, and delete data to and from a database. The SQL builder included with Dreamweaver
lets you create simple queries without having to understand SQL. However, if you want to
create complex SQL queries, you will need to learn SQL, and manually write SQL statements
that you enter into Dreamweaver.

a database connection for your site, refer to the database connection chapter for the server
technology you are developing for, and follow the instructions on creating a database
connection.

Microsoft ASP.NET refers to a recordset as a DataSet. If you are working with ASP.NET
document types, the dialog boxes and menu choices specific to ASP.NET use the label
DataSet. The Dreamweaver documentation generically refers to both types as
recordsets, but uses DataSet when specifically describing ASP.NET features.
