Hi All,
I need some clarification. I have a situation where I have to use XML files to update a database using vb.net or c#.net. We have a form by which we will get an XML file in the browser from another web site. Now we need to run a script to update a backend access database with that xml file.
My doubt is that can we access the xml file without storing the xml file on our system. I need to make the xml file invisible to the user yet accessible to the programmer to run the script. I know the scripting part but I doubt whether I can do it without storing the xml file.
I would appreciate of anyone can give me an idea of accessing the xml page directly from the browser without storing it.
Thanks.

You can use it without writing it back to storage. Just look into the XmlReader and XmlDocument classes. Just don't save it back to the hdd.
