      Quite often, even though I personally rarely use them; you'll find them in a lot of brownfields, as it is quite easy to load a datatable using a reader. Those are also common examples in most tutorials, making it quite accessible :) I prefer to fetch the raw values from said reader, as I rarely need the overhead a table-class introduces.

        Use them most of the time as they are easy and do all the hard work.

          As soon as I get the data from the database I move it into a model/object so I never work with the dataset/table object. In future I will move the datatable to a Json string on the server and let the client move it into a model/object.
