XML Integration with ADO and Internet Explorer 5 - ADO Recordset Namespace
(Page 2 of 8 )
If you’re using ADO to send and retrieve data then you’ll see a schema associated with the file. The schema is embedded into the XML and placed at the top of the document. The first thing which stands out in the code is the root element, which identifies several namespaces.
<xml xmlns:s="“uuid:BCD6E3FO-6DA3-11dl-A2A3-00AAOOC14882”" xmlns:dt="“uuid:C2F41010-65BC-11dl-A29F-00AAOOC14882”" xmlns:rs="“urn:schema-microsoft-com:rowset”" xmlns:z="“#RowsetSchema”"
Now let us look what these namespaces represent by looking at the table below:
| Namespace | Description |
|---|
| s | Identifies the URI for the schema itself. |
| dt | Identifies the URI for the data types. |
| rs | Identifies the rowset (recordset). |
| z | Identifies the individual rows. |
Using namespaces will ensure that the element names chosen by Microsoft are applied to the schema correctly.
