VB.NET: Simple XML problem....[Resolved]

[toytoy]

Say i have these XML tag:

<Books country = "USA" date= "21/1/2005"> 
      <Title section ="1"> 
          <Reference web = "www.any.com" topic = "1"> 
      </Title> 
      <Title section ="1"> 
          <Reference web = "www.idea.com" topic = "2"> 
      </Title> 
      <Title section ="2"> 
          <Reference web = "www.howTo.com" topic = "3"> 
      </Title> 
      <Title section ="3"> 
          <Reference web = "www.do.com" topic = "4"> 
      </Title> 
</Books>

how do i actually extract the country and date attributes using XMLDocument...

I tried but it could not worked, below is my coding

Dim cou, da As Integer
Dim xdoc As New XmlDocument
Dim nodelist As XmlNodeList
Dim node As XmlNode

xdoc.Load("..\book.xml")

nodelist = xdoc.SelectNodes("/Books")

For Each node In nodelist
  cou = node.Attributes.GetNamedItem("country").Value
  MessageBox.Show(cou)
  da = node.Attributes.GetNamedItem("date").Value
  MessageBox.Show(da)
Next

Thanks
