Dataset.select

There is no Select method in DataSet class. Also, DataSet is not designed for XML manipulations.

dataview

What this has to do with XML?

xmlDocument.SelectNodes

XMLDocument.SelectNodes or XMLDocument.SelectSingleNode with XPath expression will be fast.

xmlNavigator.select

AFAIK, this class is no longer used.
