Problem with readXml into DataSet

[Linus Rörstad]

Hello!

I have created a xml-file by using the writeXml method on a dataset. The
problem arrises when I want to read the xml-file back into a dataset on a
pocket pc application. Some of the fields which are strings have whitespaces
added to end of the values in the dataset but not in the xml-file. How do I
read the xml-file without getting the whitespaces?

This is a part of the xml-file:
- <User>
<Username>hoa</Username>
<Password>hoa</Password>
<Access>1</Access>
</User>
and when it's put into the dataset it's like this:
Username="hoa "

The code I'm using to read the xml-file:

ds = new DataSet();
reader = new XmlTextReader(configs.DataPath);

ds.ReadXml( reader, XmlReadMode.ReadSchema);

Thanks
Linus

I noticed there is only a portion of the XML file. If your XML file contains schema information regarding field lengths, and there Username is a fixed length string field that could be responsible for padding out the value with spaces when it is read into the DataSet

DataSet.ReadXml() will not add nor remove spaces to/from data in the XML
file.

IE, on the other hand, will hide spaces. For example, this one <foo> Hello
</foo> looks like this in IE: <foo>Hello</foo>

These spaces are in your XML. You should remove spaces from the XML file
you're loading if you don't need them.

Best regards,
