Remarks

Access the DENetworkDataset for an existing NetworkDataset by calling IDatasetComponent::DataElement.

[C#]

IDENetworkDataset GetDataElementFromNetworkDataset(INetworkDataset networkDataset)
{
  IDatasetComponent datasetComponent = networkDataset as IDatasetComponent;
  return (datasetComponent.DataElement as IDENetworkDataset);
}

[Visual Basic .NET]

Function GetDataElementFromNetworkDataset(networkDataset As INetworkDataset) As IDENetworkDataset
  Dim datasetComponent As IDatasetComponent = CType(networkDataset, IDatasetComponent)
  Return CType(datasetComponent.DataElement, IDENetworkDataset)
End Function
