The DataReader classes expose a new property named HasRows that returns a Boolean value indicating if the result set contains any rows.
The Connection class exposes a new method named EnlistDistributedTransaction. If a component is pooled with an open connection, it will not automatically enlist in any new transactions that are started while the component is active. The EnlistDistributedTransaction method can be used to enlist it into a transaction.
