Are there any ways to bind information from a XML file into a listbox for Vb.Net? e.g I need to display all the products that are in the XML file into the listbox for the user to choose from. Another question would be how do we edit XML files? e.g After creating a XML file, I need to add more products into the XML file my project is mainly about product inventory

I'm not sure if there is an easier way, but I tend to get a node collection with an XPath, then I build an arraylist of strings from that and bind that to the listbox.

It's involved enough that I wrote a wrapper for it all for wdwj mag a few years ago, but in hindsight I don't use it, it's not that bad.
