15. What Is XPath? XPath maps an XML document to a tree of nodes XPath maps an XML document to a tree of nodes Use XPath expressions to identify, select, and manipulate nodes in an XML hierarchy Use XPath expressions to identify, select, and manipulate nodes in an XML hierarchy Use location paths to select nodes Use location paths to select nodes XPath operators and functions XPath operators and functions

16. Why Use XPath? In XSLT style sheets, for pattern matching In SQL Server 2000, to address result-set nodes In XPointer, to link documents together System.xml to select nodes programmatically XML XPath

27. When to synchronize an XmlDataDocument with a DataSet When to load XML directly into a DataSet XPath queries are needed over data in the DataSet. Queries of data in the DataSet are easier using SQL than XPath Preservation of element ordering in the source XML is critical. Preservation of element ordering in the source XML is not critical. White space and formatting preservation in the source XML is critical. White space between elements and formatting does not need to be preserved in the source XML.
