i have just replied to another user with a complete example using xml, xsd
(for more info refer to post - Urgent help needed converting xmlnode to
dataset)
DataSet ds = new DataSet();
ds.ReadXmlSchema(@"..\..\Customers.xsd");
// create matching xml data document
XmlDataDocument xdd = new XmlDataDocument(ds);
try
{
xdd.Load(@"..\..\Customers.xml");
}
catch(Exception ex)
{
MessageBox.Show(ex.Message, "Error Loading XML");
}
this.dgXML.DataSource = ds;
this.dgXML.DataMember = "CustomerData";
hope this helps

Thanks for your help
How do I get the XmlDataDocument into the Dataset?
Will this work without a schema? We get this data from another system, and
there is no Schema, I would have to create one.
This is also a lot of processing and memory usage. I am surprised XML
sorting is so hard to do...
Thanks again

for sorting you dont need to use XPathExpression.. its normally used to
do a scan and get nordes that match a certain criteria.
if you want to sort it.
Create a Dataset
Use XmlDataDocument (with relation to the dataset).
Load the XML Document or a part of it (if so load the schema first)
At this step the dataset is populated with the xml data.
now you can apply dataset.tables[0].Select(sortcriteria) to fetch the
sorted order of datarows that can be imported into a table clone and can be
displayed in the datagrid

What is the best way to sort an XmlDocument for display in a DataGrig?
I can use Xpath with an XpathExpression, and a XpathNavigator. But
this XpathNavigator object is of no use to me, I need a XmlDocument. So is
there an easy way to convert an XPathNavigator object to an XmlDocument?
And I could use a piece of Xstl to transform the doc. But this seems
like a lot of work. I would have to load the Xslt from file, cache it, and
apply it. I also have not found an easy way to transform an XmlDocument in
memory. It seems it is all aimed at taking a disk file, and applying the XSLT
from a file,a nf write to a file.
Thanks for any help.
David
