Hi all,

generate strongly typed dataset for this table in xsd file i am
getting entry as below:-

<xs:element name="_x0031_company" type="xs:string" minOccurs="0" />

Can anyone tell me why column name '1company' is written as
"_x0031_company"?

why can't i have entry as below:
<xs:element name="1company" type="xs:string" minOccurs="0" />

Any help will be truely appreciated.

A name is not allowed to start with a digit, it has to start with what
the XML specification respectively the "Namespaces in XML 1.0"
specification specifies as an allowed character
<http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml/#NT-Name>
<http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-xml-names/#ns-qualnames>
