  Hey All,   I wanted to build a simple scheduled task that hits my document library table in SQL Server, builds an RSS (XML) file based on that table, and then saves the resulting XML as a flat .rss file.  I'm using SQL Server 2000, and so far I've gotten SQL Server to output the XML from the table in the right format for RSS (using FOR XML EXPLICIT) as a query.  I'm not sure where to go from here - can't figure out how to go ...Show All

• Software Development for Windows Vista ASP.NET and WF viable?
