This is new territory for me so I don't know where to start with a
design. I have to render a client side Dataset (5 cols x 20 or more
rows) to a canvas.
I know I can use Dataset.WriteXML("myfile.xml") but not sure what
producing an XML file does for me. I know that if I rename
"myfile.XML" to "myfile.HTML" it renders to IE, but it ain't pretty. I
have to make it pretty.
I assume there are classes to READ an XML file like this, and classes
to produce HTML. Ths sounds like basic stuff for a Webbie, but I'm not
thusly skilled. There MUST be VS articles on these concepts I can turn
into code... any ideas where to start looking?

Many Thanks!
Matt
 
You can create an ASP.Net application, drop a DataGrid on the WebForm, fill the dataset as usual, call DataBind in the form Load
event ...

If you want to produce an html file from a dataset, you can use XslTransform classes...
