DataSet WriteXML generates 'NewDataSet'

[bav]

Hi;
I would like to produce this kind of XML output using VB.NET 2003
DataSet.ReadXML Schema, and add some row contents, and finally
DataSet.WriteXM L

<test>
<header>
<name>...</name>
<description>.. .</description>
</header>
<subject>
<lkfdsjldsjfl ..ds.f
</subject>
</test>

question:
- how would the XML schema look like ?

output is always wrong:

It starts with root element 'NewDataSet' and <testsubeleme nt
or, when i specify schema id="test", it starts output with root element
<testand again
<testas subelement which is not what i want.

How can i fix this or is this the nature of DataSet ?

Another way might be to write your xml document the way you want it to be
exactly, and then generate the schema from the xml document using an XML ->
XSD converter. Then include the schema in your project and call your
ReadXmlSchema() method on it.

When you include the Schema you should then be able to view the Schema in
the Schema designer (i'm o VS2005) not sure if VS 2003 has one though?
