Hello,
I have a list of product categories and each category may or may not have
children and it goes down in a varying level of depth.
Now I have to pull this category information for navigation, I was thinking
of store the ID#'s and category names as well as parent ID's but actually
using an XML file to store the hierachy.
Would be an efficient way of doing this?
Thank you

Hi,
You can keep the parent ID as an attribute of the Category node, and filter
the XML for a particular value. I have no idea how efficient this solution
is though.
What I would do is create a DataSet with a Category table, including a
column ParentID , you can create a Foreign key to the same table to the ID
column then you could use some construction like DataRow.GetChil Rows(
"Parent_FK" ); which return a DataRow[]
Hope this help,

Greetings,
I'm working on a project that involved that has need of a categorization
system. Logically speaking, the system will have elements, these elements
will belong to at least a single category, sometimes more, additionally,
categories may also be members of any number of categories.
Well -- Thats the vision at least. I'm looking for some pointers, tutorials,
white paper, napkins, whatever explaining how this can be done.
