Sorry if this is a basic question but I was wondering how to test the
dataset information as it is being read.

ex, I have a table that contains file extentions such as .xls, .doc,
..ppt. What I want to do is test the dataset as they are being written
and if the dataset is equal to .xls i want it to be excel..


I am new to this and am able to connect to the table but I just can
seem to get a handle on how to test the current dataset record and make
any changes. any bump in the right direction would be helpful ...
thanks in advance
 
Jerremy,

I get the idea that you mix up a dataset with an XML file.

A dataset is an XML file where the tags etc are used in a special way.

It has if it is not nested only elements, which are 3 deep.

There are lot of other types of XML files, by instande for Excel, For Words
etc.

XML is however not the subject of this newsgroup, for that are probably
better newsgroups.

I hope however that this helps a little bit.
