Access to (XML + XLST) to file.

[Hai Nguyen]

I would like to know after transforming my datatables which store in dataset
into XML form. Now I want to save it into a file and also create a XLST file
to read it. How can I do that? Would you give me any advice or link to
further my understandings.

Thanks for any clues

Well, could you please elaborate the question? Feel free to post some
code and samples.

Sorry I don't have code yet. I'm asking for solutions which can help me
solve the problem. This is the first time I have to cope this situation,
hence I'm clueless how to start. I would like to ask for some ideas then I
can start from scratch.

Let's say: I have a dataset which has a table Customers (which retrieves
from an Access Database)
1/ I convert it into XML format, it should look like this
<Customer>
<Name>...</Name>
<SSN>....<SSN <
...
</Customer>
My Question for this is how can I write it into a file.

2/ Second, I want to view it in any browser by providing it a XLST format;
otherwise I also need to provide XLST to read the XML as well

My Question for this is: how can I make XLST format generic since the
table can always be different. It's not always Customers, it can be
Contacts, Addresses.....

I appreciate for any ideas
Thanks

PS: The way I describe above may be not efficient. If there are other ways,
please instruct me)

It depends on how do you "convert it into XML format". Usually all you
need is to call DataSet.WriteXM L() method.

Well, generally such XSLT hardly can be generic. But as you are trying
to transform tabular data you can write such "generic" stylesheet, which
blindly outputs provided data in tables.
