i created a xmlfile from your node list but as i said you can directly use
the OuterXML
i will copy contents off each file and add those here. Hope this helps
Customers.xml

you need something like this
XmlNode xn = new XmlNode();
// the above represents you xml node... replace all instances with your
node.
DataSet dsXML = new DataSet();
XmlDataDocument xdd = new XmlDataDocument(dsXML);
xdd.LoadXml(xn.OuterXml);
// this should populate the dataset
if you have any problems.. message back.. i will try and give you a
complete working example

news:A0**********************************@microsof t.com... Dear All,
I have a problem here, I'm using C# Webform calling a webservices. The
webservices return me a XMLnode, using this XMLnode I want to convert
it to dataset so I can bind to the datagrid, by extracting the
<CustomerData></CustomerData> block from the xmlnode.
Below is the sample of xmlnode return from webservices.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<OutputParams>
<CustomerData>
<CustomerID>1</CustomerID>
<CustomerName>TEST1</CustomerName>
<Gender>M </Gender>
<DateOfBirth>19800101</DateOfBirth>
</CustomerData>
<CustomerData>
<CustomerID>1</CustomerID>
<CustomerName>TEST2</CustomerName>
<Gender />
<DateOfBirth>19000101</DateOfBirth>
</CustomerData>
<CustomerData>
<CustomerID>3</CustomerID>
<CustomerName>TEST3</CustomerName>
<Gender />
<DateOfBirth>19000101</DateOfBirth>
</CustomerData>
<ReturnCode>0</ReturnCode>
<ErrorCode>0</ErrorCode>
<ErrorDescription />
</OutputParams>
How can it be done? Please provide some examples on this.
Thanks in advance.
Cheers,
mae
