    XML Designer?

    Does VS 2008 have a good XML designer to work with XML data, schemas,
    etc...?

    Any tools to easily add, edit and delete data from an XML file?

    This is new to me....

    Thanks!

      Yes, quite nice support - you get intellisense in VS2008 when editing
      and building an XSD (schema) or XSLT file - very handy indeed !

        Don't think that's what they were looking for. I think they wanted a visual
        designer like the asp.net designer of some sorts. The best I know of,
        Microsoft took the xml designer that was in vs2005 out and never put it in
        vs2008. I guess they are working on a new one that is supposed to be
        included in a later version... vs2008 sp1 hopefully...

          :( Yes. It seems like it was there in 2005. I am a XML beginner and have
          a GUI interface would be quite handy.

          I was thinking that I could just put an XMLdatasource control on a webform,
          drop a gridview control (or similar) on it and be able to add, edit, insert
          and delete XML data. But, I guess I was wishing too much.

            The good thing is that you can run Visual Studio 2005 alongside Visual
            Studio 2008. That way you can use the designer in 2005 and export the xml
            files it creates into the 2008 project. That is what I have seen people
            recommend when I did a search on it with both google and live search. This
            would be quite agravating though and I probably wouldn't do anything of the
            sort unless you had to have it (like it was your xml lifeline or something).
            I did do another search for xml designer in vs2008 and found a ctp release
            of xml designer for vs2008, but it was really old. Not for sure if they
            abandoned the designer issue or not.
