Thank you for the reply.
I tried it, but have found that if I have a date type in xml data island,
recordset save() method produces unspecified error message, for example using the data:



Also, If I add records to recordset, will the result.XML property contain also the changed rows ?

I tried to convert a xml string from .save() method to foxpro cursor using
Visual FoxPro XMLToCursor() function. However an error "invalid width on decimal places" during call XMLToCursor(). Is it possible to use this function?
