        //from a feature dataset to being standalone in a workspace, or vice versa.
        IDatasetContainer datasetContainer;
        if (requiredStandAlone)
        {
            datasetContainer = featureDataset.Workspace as IDatasetContainer;

        else
        {
            datasetContainer = featureDataset as IDatasetContainer;
