Hi,

I'm trying to convert a dataset to XML string using C#.
The string should be passed as a return value of a method.

I've got 3 big problems with that.

1. the dataset just gives me the XML and schema with seperate methods, but I want schema and XML in one string
2. the XML is UTF16 encoded, but I want UTF8
3. the schema doesn't include field length informations, with the result, that a VFP application which consumes the XML, creates Memofields for each character field

Any ideas to solve these problems?
