am I misunderstanding readxmlschema ?

[David Bartosik [MSFT MVP]]

I am writing an xml file from a dataset. I don't want the xml file to use
the table names, I don't want the schema inferred from the dataset. Because
of this I created an xsd to provide an explicit schema. I create my dataset
object, I set it's readxmlschema to my xsd file, then I writexml.
From what I've read I expect the output to use my schema. But what I get is
both schemas, my xsd and from the dataset. I can't find if I'm implementing
incorrectly or if I just can't accomplish this, so I'm here looking for
help.

Hi David,

The schema you're reading to a DataSet must accord with a DataSet Schema
specification. If you use some other schemas, the schema will be mapped to
a DataSet schema automatically. So in this case, I suggest you try to do
the following to get your desired Xml:

1. Write the Xml using DataSet.WriteXml.
2. Use an XSL stylesheet to transform this xml into the desired format.

HTH.
