Generating Windows Forms out of XML

I've got a problem : I would like to automatically generate a
windowsform starting with an XML-file.

Let's say f.e. you have got this piece of XML :
<person>
<name>Joske Vermeulen</name>
<country>Belgium</country>
</person>

Is there some way visual studio.net can go 'oh, a <name>-tag,
this belongs in a label with this position and these properties' ?

All help would be appreciated a lot

Robert,

This WFML is the first step to Longhorn's XAML. Interesting articel

Hi Klaus.

Interesting. But I fail to see how can it be usefull. The author does
not talks about situations where it can be used.

The article works for .NET 1.1. Do you know if .NET 1.0 supports WFML?

Thanks,

Robert Scheer

Robert,

sorry, I messed up with the keyboard... :-(

Next attempt:

I think you could see this WFML as a small adaptation of Longhorn's XAML.
An interesting articel about that you can find at:

http://discuss.fogcreek.com/joelonsoftware/default.asp?cmd=show&ixPost=82547

Go from there; it got some other interested links, too.
