Additional notes to my answer: as you are using template fields, you need to handle RowEditing and RowUpdating events to update the dataset. Analyse the dataset how your data populate into datatables

Bind the dataset to a bindable control, most probably datagridview?. This bound controls update the data in the dataset on edit mode. You can have a separate user interface to enter new data to the dataset.

Basically those XML elements are arranged into tables according to the data strructure of your xml.

Now write back the xml using the dataset's WirteXml() method
