Cannot Load Dataset with XMLSCHEMA object or Schema as string

[=?Utf-8?B?TGFzdGJ1aWxkZXJz?=]

Hi all,

I have a weird problem which has been causing me a headache for the last two
days.

I have to dynamicly generate a schema in memory and load it into a dataset
in memory to be returned for further use.


To create the schema I am using the XMLSchema classes and the result is the
following which compiles successfully:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-16"?>

I am then convert this to s string and try to load this into a dataset using
the LoadXMLSchema property but when I read the schema after accepting changes
in the dataset the result is:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-16"?>
<xs:schema id="EntityName "

msdata:UseCurre ntLocale="true" >
<xs:complexType >
<xs:choice minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="unbo unded" />
</xs:complexType>
</xs:element>
</xs:schema>

I have tried using anxmldatadocume nt as follows:

StreamReader myStreamReader = null;
myStreamReader = new StreamReader(@" c:\test.xsd");
XmlDataDocument myXmlDataDocume nt = new XmlDataDocument ();
myXmlDataDocume nt.DataSet.Enfo rceConstraints = true;
myXmlDataDocume nt.DataSet.Name space =
"http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema";
myXmlDataDocume nt.DataSet.Read XmlSchema(myStr eamReader);

I have also tried using a simple dataset with the same result.

Any help with this would be much appreciated.
