Crash Course in XML
-
Hello all, I want to use XML to store some data in an app I'm writing. I've always used Access and DB programming prior to this but want to learn XML. Have a very limited knowledge of XML and would like to do some basic DB stuff like; 1) Read data in. 2) Modify it. 3) Write it back out (as needed) Any help would be appreciated. I've googled and have found a lot but unable to find anything simple and straight forward. Thanks, Mike:confused:
If you can't find time to do it right the first time how are you going to find time to do it again?

If you want to learn about XML and related technologies, I suggest visiting this site W3 Schools[^] To work with XML in .NET you have to deal with the classes in the System.Xml namespace. Take a look at their documentation and the continuative links that contain many useful explainations. You can start with the
XmlDocument,XmlReaderandXmlWriterclasses.

Stefan, Thank you very much for the info. W3 looks like a very good resource site! Thanks, Mike
