Recordset load XML

[john0600]

I'm writing a web service in .NET to work with Delphi clients. Delphi
uses ADO so I want to convert the Dataset to a Recordset and vice-
versa. It appears a Web Service cannot publish a web method with a
Recordset return so I save the RecordSet to an XML string:

SqlDataAdapter sa = new SqlDataAdapter( "Select * FROM " +
table , oConn);
DataSet ds = new DataSet();
sa.Fill(ds, table);
sa.FillSchema(d s.Tables[0], SchemaType.Sour ce);

Recordset rs = new Recordset();
rs = ConvertToRecord set(ds.Tables[0]);
Stream streamObj = new Stream();

// Save the recordset's XML representation in a stream object
rs.Save(streamO bj, PersistFormatEn um.adPersistXML );

// Get the string (XML) of the recordset
string outputXml = streamObj.ReadT ext(streamObj .Size);
The XML works fine in Delphi. Now I want to make changes and send back
the XML and load into a Recordset or reverse the process. The
Recordset doesn't have a Load method. I'm new to CSharp and am not
sure how to load the xml from ADO into a Recordset. I would like to
avoid using files and load the XML string. Is there a way of doing
this?

Thanks
John

If recordset is what you want then you can load the xmlstring into a dataset
and then use ConvertToRecord set to get the recordset

True that it doesn't have a "Load" method, However, the XML can be loaded using the Open method.

Open "Data.XML"
