Declaring A New XML Text Reader

[Tim_Merchant]

I always get this error when trying to create a xmltextreader:

C:\Documents and Settings\Timothy\My Documents\Visual Studio Projects\Amazon\Form1.vb(65): Overload resolution failed because no accessible 'New' accepts this number of arguments.

Imports System.Xml
Public Class Form1
    Inherits System.Windows.Forms.Form

#Region " Windows Form Designer generated code "

    Public Sub New()
        MyBase.New()

        'This call is required by the Windows Form Designer.
        InitializeComponent()

        'Add any initialization after the InitializeComponent() call

    End Sub

    'Form overrides dispose to clean up the component list.
    Protected Overloads Overrides Sub Dispose(ByVal disposing As Boolean)
        If disposing Then
            If Not (components Is Nothing) Then
                components.Dispose()
            End If
        End If
        MyBase.Dispose(disposing)
    End Sub

    'Required by the Windows Form Designer
    Private components As System.ComponentModel.IContainer

    'NOTE: The following procedure is required by the Windows Form Designer
    'It can be modified using the Windows Form Designer.  
    'Do not modify it using the code editor.
    Friend WithEvents Button1 As System.Windows.Forms.Button
    <System.Diagnostics.DebuggerStepThrough()> Private Sub InitializeComponent()
        Me.Button1 = New System.Windows.Forms.Button
        Me.SuspendLayout()
        '
        'Button1
        '
        Me.Button1.Location = New System.Drawing.Point(56, 40)
        Me.Button1.Name = "Button1"
        Me.Button1.Size = New System.Drawing.Size(96, 24)
        Me.Button1.TabIndex = 0
        Me.Button1.Text = "Button1"
        '
        'Form1
        '
        Me.AutoScaleBaseSize = New System.Drawing.Size(5, 13)
        Me.ClientSize = New System.Drawing.Size(256, 238)
        Me.Controls.Add(Me.Button1)
        Me.Name = "Form1"
        Me.Text = "Form1"
        Me.ResumeLayout(False)

    End Sub

#End Region

    Private Sub Form1_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load


    End Sub

    Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click
        Dim tRead As XmlTextReader = New XmlTextReader




    End Sub
End Class

The default (no argument) contstructor for XmlTextReader is Protected. Maybe try using one of the Public constructors.

[Tim_Merchant]

Could I see an example of how that is done?

Check out MSDN - lots of good examples. But here's a snippet:

Dim sr As New StreamReader("c:\temp\myfile.xml")
        Dim xtr As New XmlTextReader(sr)
        While xtr.Read
            Debug.WriteLine(xtr.LineNumber)
        End While
        xtr.Close()
        sr.Close()

Great Thanks
