  DataSet statment

  Mar 06, 2019 01:31 AM|slb2012|LINK

  Which of the following statements is True

  dataSet ds = new DataSet();

  ds.ReadXML("..\..\states.xml", XmlReadMode Auto);

  Responses:

  1. XML data cannot be read into DataSet
  2. The code will run successfully
  3. There are missing verbatim string literals at line 2

  I think the right answer will be number 2, correct?

  Your help is appreciated.  Thanks

  Hi slb2012,

  It depends , if the first parameter ..\..\states.xml truly refers to an xml file and it is well-formatted, the code could run successfully.

  For example, if   my code is 

     DataSet set = new DataSet();
              set.ReadXml(Server.MapPath("/xmlDemo/dataset.xml"));

  Then I should have dataset.xml in my folder xmlDemo  at root path of my project.

  And below is my xml. song  will be the table name, artist,album,genre .. . will be the column name.

  <music>
                         
                            <song>
                              <artist>Babyface</artist>
                              <genre>RB</genre>
                              <album>Grown and sexy</album>
                              <year>2005</year>
                            </song>
                            <song>
                              <artist>Maria Arredondo</artist>
                              <genre>Pop</genre>
                              <album>Not going under</album>
                              <year>2004</year>
                            </song>
                        
   </music>

  Best regards,

  Thank you for the little orientation you gave me of the XML DataSet path. Yes, if well-formatted, the code could run successfully that is the right answer.
