D6 Ent.
I am trying to do
ClientDataSet.SaveToFile('test.xml', dfXML).
this works ok with a master detail where 2 details connected to the master.
The same command does not work with there 5 details connected to the master
but if I change dfXML to dfBinary it works.
Is there any limit in details sets when saving in .XML format? Or may be
there is something wrong with app. itself.

Is there an error message?. What do you mean it doesn't work?

Try using 2005 version of midas.dll found at:
http://www.distribucon.com/midas.html
(I don't know if this will address your problem)

Thanks
After some investigation there seems to be a problem in Master -> Details
setup of the app, which causes this peculiar behaviour.

FWI, there is a known (although undocumented) problem related to how the
link field should be named (it should have the same name as the master
field). That applies to dbexpress and ADO IIRC. Take a look at QC 1488,
it may interest you

A number of problems have been reported with the XML format in
ClientDataSet. Use the binary format. You will save yourself a lot of
trouble.
