So all other updates are ignore, do I have to set applied to true.

What about the params - do I have to assign them myself?

Will my plan work as I layed it out in my first post - ignoring the
execute issue.

> No, you don't call the Execute method yourself, the dataset does it
for you. Basically, the InsertSQL is posted when you call Post from
Insert mode; EditSQL when posting from Edit mode; and DeleteSQL
when posting from Delete mode. (All data access components execute
DML when they post; you only "know" about it if you need to define
special DML statements via these "UpdateSQL" properties...)
