I want to use ADO Datasets to use for applications considerable XML
configuration files. I can stream in/out some pretty simple xml but
really need to have a complex nested format with choices (or lookup
fields) and such so that I can simply bind to Grids and get my UI for
free. I would love to sit and design in Visual Studio's XML schema
designer but it's pretty complex, anybody know of a good book that
covers this area in detail, you could write a whole book on this
alone?

Sceppa's book is excellent and has good coverage of what you want although
XML alone isn't the focus:

Wahlin's ebook is pretty cool and very focused on what you are asking about

Greg Beamer's book is really good as well and has a strong focus on XML

Finally, Bill Vaughn's book
http://www.apress.com/book/supplementDownload.html?bID=79&sID=331 is another
great resource in general. Chapter 22 specifically deals with XML and
ADO.NET, but I'd still highly recommend it b/c that chapter does a great job
of explaining XML's place in ADO.NET and it's about as good of a book as
there can be on ADO.NET

HTH,

Bill
