Using asp and xml to fill a drop down list

I have an asp page right now and I want to fill a drop-down list with
information like a persons name from an xml file. Once the user picks a
person from the drop down list I want it to go back to the xml file and
load the information about the person into textboxes. Does anybody have
an example for something like this in asp?

This might give you a starter:

although I'm interested in learning more about the version of ASP it
says it applies to at the end of the article....
