whidbey/asp.net: best practices for generating XML and binding to treeview?

Apologies if this is not the right place for this question.

I'm curious what method people use in practice to translate database data
into XML that can be consumed by XML-hungry controls. I'm playing around
with Whidbey, and one of the niftier controls is the treeview. For my use it
makes sense to pull this information from a database. However, the treeview
wants XML in file-based form.

I know that SQL Server 2k (which I have) can return XML mapped to a schema
you specify. However, the Whidbey design environment only allows for XML
files to define the XmlDataSource.

Certainly, we could write out XML to disk, though that seems inefficient. Am
I getting what I deserve for expecting too much out of an alpha release of a
new development tool, or is there some fundamental design pattern that I
need to acquaint myself with?

Thanks.

Hi I understand that ASP.net 2.0 (Whidbey) is going to reduce coding by 70%. Surely this is going to de-skill or dumb down the developer's task and open up the task of web development to less qualified and trained staff. Tell me if I'm wrong.

Hello, I'm going round and round on how to best handle images for a treeview control. These are all known at design time so there is no dynamic aspect. That said, I want to associate the image with my project so I can easily edit them. It seems like I need to do this: - Create one bitmap per image.

Hi, I am new to this newsgroup and need help in the following questions. 1. I am workin' on a GUI application. Does C# provides Layout Managers the way Java does to design GUI? I know that it can be done using the designer but I intentionally don't want to use that. The one reason is that you cannot change the code generated by the designer. The other could be that you have more free hand and control to design your GUI. 2....

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
