A select statement with a FOR XML clause is really useful because it
transforms a record set into an xml document. Unfortunately I can't read
it from a record set with one row and one column, like you could if you
had a statement like "SELECT @variable". Is there some way to this?

I like the FOR XML clause so much that I would consider getting into the
freetds source code to make it work, but I haven't got a clue where to
start. What sort of skills do you need to do that sort of thing?
