+<H2><U>Creating datasets in groups</U></H2>
+We have shown how to create groups, datasets and attributes. In this section,
+we show how to create datasets in groups. Recall that H5Dcreate creates a
+dataset at the location specified by a location identifier and a name. Similar to
+H5Gcreate, the location identifier can be a file identifier or a group identifier and the name can be
+relative or absolute. The location identifier and the name together determine the
+location where the dataset is to be created. If the location identifier and name
+refers to a group, then the dataset is created in that group.
+
+
+<H2> Programming Example</H2>

+This example shows how to create a dataset in a particular group.
+It opens the file created in the previous example and creates two datasets.<BR>
