I have seen many examples of populating a Dataset with an XML file. Is it possible to populate a Dataset from an XML string (thus removing the need for a FileStream and an XMLTextReader)? Example?here is the answer to my own question:<BR><BR>Dim objDS as Dataset = new Dataset()<BR>Dim xmlSR As System.IO.StringReader = New System.IO.StringReader(strXML)<BR>objDS.ReadXml(xmlSR)
