• .NET Development Creating an XML based Windows Form.

  Hi all I have a very basic question. I have in the past created windows forms that used Oracle tables for the datasource. I am now trying to create a simple application that will only use xml files to read/write data.

At this point I am a bit lost. I am not sure how to tell the form that I want it to be based off the xml schema that I just defined. When I try to pull in dataset from the toolbox onto the form, it indicates there are no datasets. I seem to be ...Show All
