I've been having a bit of an experiment with Sharepoint 2007 and creating a Site of 'Publishing Site' type. The best thing to do is make it a top level site and that way it's master pages are used when you create Pages and it uses the Page Layouts etc. within that Site (unless you really want to share Page Layouts across different web sites).Changing the Page LayoutYou can change the Page Layout

In the last major web application development I worked on we auto generated a whole data layer based on a defined database schema. Microsoft have popped their heads up now with ADO.NET advancements and are offering up their own Entity type objects.Channel9 have got a nice video regarding this and the ADO.NET team blog also has a good introduction to where they are going with this. Thanks to Lee
