I have a functional query rule that returns the datasubset I am interested in. With the data from that data subset I would like to populate a CDT. Is there a way to convert the data section of a datasubset into a CDT? The syntax I am trying to use:

a!save(ri!CDT_dataWeNeed,fn!index(rule!Database_getData(),"data",""))

The reason I am trying to do this is because I would like to use dot notation to move data from a database with datastore to nested CDTs to create an XML message.

Basically, you would use cast() and typeof() cast it to the type of the CDT. Something along the lines of the following will get you what you need:
cast(
typeof(
'type!CDT_YouNeed'()
),
fn!index(rule!Database_getData(),"data",""))
