choice Element and GetXML method of DataSet

[Ganesh Muthuvelu]

Hello,
I have a schema that contains two "choice" elements, say "F1" and "F2" -
meaning either F1 or F2 can be present but not both.
I loaded this schema into a dataset, which created two columns in the
datatable "F1" and "F2". Now, I load the dataset with a value for F1 and not
for F2.
When I use the GetXML method of the dataset, the output produces both
elements F1 and F2, like shown below:

<F1>value1</F1>
<F2 />

which according to the schema is not right bcos only one element F1 or F2
has to be present and not both..

Any ideas on how the overcome this GetXML method behavior?.

Thanks.

Version 1.1

If framework 2.0 provides a method for this, I have no issues in using 2.0.
