>The problem here is that the schema a) is not used by any shipping software (it's the .Net beta 2 single datatable of a dataset schema) b) can't be made to fit any other data. This includes importing data from SQL Server generated by the XML extensions which don't work either.
XMLToCursor works nicely with SQL Server XML, as far as I can tell. Given, I haven't tried every datatype, but what I am using so far works fine. It also works with XML generated by persisting an ADO recordset. What problems are you seeing?
I had been using my own routine to go from ADO XML to a VFP cursor, and when Gene G told me that ADO support had been added to XMLToCursor I realized a _huge_ performance gain.
