Hi there,

When should I use an XML file for Data manipulation instead of a database.

Can I expect a better performance when I use an XML file as my backend.Does that make my application more scalable.

How many connection objects can I have in the memory at a time.Is the XMLDOM object less resource hungry than the ADO objects like connection,command and recordset.
