DataBlock is a Object Relational Mapping and persistence framework for .NET .It's goal is to relieve the developer from writing tedious data access code and reduce the development time.

   DataBlock works by mapping database entities to .NET classes and creating business objects that allow you to manipulate data. The main design decision behind DataBlock wassimplicity(Simple things should be simple and complex things should be possible - Alan Kay). When working with DataBlock your job should be to create business object that handle the specific business issues instead of writing SQL, juggling with ADO.NET objects or making sure that a specific piece of code is running in a transaction. It should be easy to map objects, read, write, transform and query data.

  Also i recognize that is impossible to write a tool can can cover every data access option so DataBlock was designed to work seamlessy with stored procedures, interoperate with already existing ADO.NET code and simply allow you to work with data the way you want.

DataBlock comes with  DataBlock Modeler, a GUI tool which makes mapping objects a few seconds job.
