dotnet xml: Hi,

I have a multi-level complex XML that I like to process and store in the
database. I'm comfortable with using DataSet and then reading the tables
(XML is parsed into 7 tables in my case) and processing the data. However,
just to become familar with XmlTextReader, I've done the same thing using
XmlTextReader. Any major difference between the two that I should be aware
of for a production level application? Especially when the XML is really
complex. Is using DataSet.ReadXml a solid method to read XML and process it?


Thanks
Maz.

It's database-centric way, for data-centric minds. It's not capable to
process any XML documents, but only subset that fits relational table
model. And it's not so effective of course, but if you feel confotable
with it and the perf is satisfying, why to bother?
