Writing XML file

[Kelly G.]

Hi all,

I have a small problem in writing XML file from VB.net. I am trying to write
the XML file using dataset.
I am able to write the XML in sequential way(one node after other). I can
write in the hierarchial(tree) structure also but only by using datagrid.
But I would like to write the XML file without using datagrid but just the
grid.

I am sending the sample. Could u please tell me how I can write
hierarchially using dataset but without using the datagrid.

Best regards,
Kelly

Hi Kelly,

A sample I made yesterday and therefore I only had to change a little bit.

I hope this helps,

'Make a datatable with 8 columns
Dim ds As New DataSet
Dim dt As New DataTable("scorpion")
For i As Integer = 0 To 7
Dim dc As New DataColumn(Chr(i + 65))
dt.Columns.Add(dc)
Next
'And 12 rows every column filled with a value
For i As Integer = 0 To 11
dt.Rows.Add(dt.NewRow)
For y As Integer = 0 To dt.Columns.Count - 1
dt.Rows(i)(y) = y.tostring
Next
Next
ds.Tables.Add(dt)
ds.WriteXml("C:\scorpion.xml")
