This enumeration specifies the DataColumn.ColumnMapping property, which determines how a column's value is written when the DataSet.WriteXml( ) method is called. Each column can be mapped to an element (Element ), which is the default; an attribute of the row element (Attribute ); omitted (Hidden ); or set to a text node within the element (SimpleContent ). There can be only one SimpleContent column in a table.

public enum MappingType {
   Element = 1,
   Attribute = 2,
   SimpleContent = 3,
   Hidden = 4
}
