SYMPTOMSWhen you try to
create a Windows form that inherits from a Windows form that contains a
dataset in Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003, you may receive the following exception error message: An
unhandled exception of type 'System.ArgumentException' occurred in
system.data.dll Additional information: Cannot add primary key constraint
since primary key is already set for the table. CAUSEIf the dataset contains nested datatables, Visual Studio
.NET incorrectly tries to add additional code to the inherited Windows form to
enforce constraints on the inherited dataset. This code tries to add a
constraint that already exists on the dataset. Therefore, the behavior that is
mentioned in the "Symptoms" section occurs.RESOLUTIONA supported hotfix is now available from Microsoft, but it is only intended to correct the problem that this article describes.
