    Hi, My application(a Windows Service) needs to create a complex xml, the values for which are retrieved from several tables of an oracle db. In order to construct this, I can use wither datasets(probably typed) or business enitity objects which are XML serializable. Also, requirement is to only use SPs at oracle end and direct SQL queries are not allowed What is a better suggestion in terms of development ease and time and also performance. I need to have the design very soon. So please give your experiences in them also -Rohan

      I always prefer writing objects over strongly typed datasets in all but the most trivial of cases. There seems to be an MS trend to eliminate OO and it always backfires late into a the project.
