C# to XML **SOLVED**

[Sgt-Peppa]

Hey,
is there any way I can jump to the root node of my xml document?

eg:

XmlNode mynode = mydoc.getRootNode

Thanx in advance,

Try populating a dataset from your XML File , then the first table is the root of that file .

First of all thanx for your help, but never had to work with a dataset up till now.Do you have an example?

Thanx,
Stephan

Sure ,

This is very simple example to work with Dataset . It loads columns of XML File into a combobox .

I almost forgot the attatchment .

BTW , it's C#.NET 2003 . You may need to convert it with the tool under my sig .

WOW, this is Cool,

Thanx for that piece of code! No need to convert, I am on 2003 too. Thats pretty need to play around with. Even thogh I just found found another alternative.

It was right in front of my eyes and I just couldnt see it.

Heres what I did:

		XmlDocument compare = new XmlDocument(); //new Instance of xml-Document
		compare.Load(path);  // select the xml source
		XmlNode mynode = compare.DocumentElement; // new Instance of Node

So mynode is now my rootnode! God I am so "codeblind" today!

But thanx anyways, cause your example is sth I can use too!

Hope you have a better "coding day" than I have.

CU,
Stephan
