I have two datasets called ds and ds1 that I want to merge into a grid. I get data from the first dataset to display in the grid but the second dataset where I want to display a count I don't get any data from it. I am trying a ds.Merge(ds1). here is the code i have for the sub. What am I doing incorrectly? I need some assistance please

Public Sub LoadSessionDateGrid(ByVal iSchool As Integer, ByVal iProgram As Integer)  
   2.         Try  
   3.             Me.Label1.Text = iSchool  
   4.             Me.Label2.Text = iProgram  
   5.             Dim ds As New DataSet()  
   6.             ds = New DataSet  
   7.             'If Me.ddType.SelectedValue = "Status" Then

Unbelievable. No one has any ideas on this.
