Hi Gurus,
I have a very simple question. Please answer.
Is it true that when we load Data into a Datasets from SQLServer it loads it
in XML format?
I am curious to know how it loads data.

I appreciate any knowledge I gain.

Thanks
Mark
 
Mark,

No it is not, but a dataset is very easy to serialize to XML.

A dataset is just a very optimized kind of OOP collection class to reflect
as much as possible the way the data is stored in a SQL type of database. It
is just a normal class that inherits like all classes from object.
