    <p>I have a requirement to make an XML file - and the partner is rather sticky about the header. Apparently, the header must be exactly this: </p> <pre><code>&lt;?xml version="1.0"?&gt; </code></pre> <p>But whenever I create an XML file I get extraneous properties like this:</p> <pre><code>&lt;?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="yes"?&gt; </code></pre> <p>The hacker in me wants to stop using XMLWriter to make the file so that I have more control over the header; "no problem, I'll just write a loop that makes its own XML tags as a StreamWriter or something, forget this XMLWriter object..." but I must admit that XMLWriter has been rather elegant to use so far; surely there must be something where I can change the XMLWriterSettings object to say "stop putting your custom properties in to the XML header please", right?</p> <p>Here's the relevant VB code:</p> <pre><code> Dim settings As New XmlWriterSettings() settings.Indent = True settings.IndentChars = " " settings.NewLineChars = "\n" Using writer As XmlWriter = XmlWriter.Create(strFileName, settings) writer.WriteStartDocument(True) For Each kvp As KeyValuePair(Of String, String) In dictArguments Dim key As String = kvp.Key Dim value As String = kvp.Value writer.WriteStartElement(key) writer.WriteString(value) writer.WriteEndElement() Next End Using </code></pre> <p>Works perfectly; but I can't find a way to control the header. I can find a way to remove it entirely of course but that's not what we want to do.</p> <p><strong>Edit: thanks for the help; so far once we removed the WriteStartDocument it now no longer displays standalone = yes. I can't get it to stop adding the encoding however. Any ideas?</strong></p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
