Answer 1

If your XML result set is still being truncated even after changing SSMS Options, use the SQLCMD utility with :XML ON option prior to running your XML statement. Direct your output to a file using the -o switch. SQLCMD is a command line utility that is very simple to use. See http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms162773.aspx.
