No....that's just another BS excuse. If XML doesn't recognize them as different then XML is wrong too. The data is different and no software tool should ever been making assumptions about the data. IT IS A BUG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The point is that if you tried to make the Key element unique in the above XML, it would complain because the spacing is not relevant to an XML document. Thus, you should always view data within ADO.NET as if it was represented by a XML file. This is not a bug. This is by design of XML. Hope this helps!
