Hi

please can someone help? I have been pulling my hair out for days trying to understand how to open a XML data store in an application. I don't understand the basic principles, as i have opened it int a dataset using readXml, but then been unable to access any of the data. I have then tried creating an XmlDataDocument, with a schema, but was unable to open as there was a conflict with the root element. Please can someone help. I have read alot of the MSDN stuff but was not really able to fully understand it.

Thanks

Why not be more helpful and give an example of your XML as well as your failing code.

Ok,

using System.Xml;

xmlDocument oDoc = new xmlDocument();

oDoc.load(/*put the xml path here*/);

then you can handel the targeted xml file within your application

or you can use an XmlTextReader object it performs the same task

Here is a link to a good tutorial for this
