[2.0] Existing XSD and Typed Datasets

[tacoman667]

I have an XSD from a comany that I need to create an XML file from. I want to create a typed dataset in VS2005 C# in order to view properties and have a faster ADO.NET experience.

When I use "add existing" and select my XSD it imports it into my solution tree and creates an XSX file. I cannot create a dataset from the name of the XSD though. It works fine if I "create new" and chose a dataset. What am I doing wrong?

Thanks for all your help!

Does your XSD file contain a valid schema for a DataSet?

[tacoman667]

I believe so. I can programatically ReadSchema() on a dataset without issue.

No one has any thoughts on how to do this through the IDE or if it is even possible through the IDE?
