Get some value from XML file

[David]

Hello.
I have XML file like this:

=============== =============== ============
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<Language>
<English>
<Captions>
<Name>Some caption</Name>
</Captions>
<Messages>
<Name>Some message</Name>
</Messages>
</English>
</Language>
=============== =============== ============

I want to read from this XML file "Some message" which is on
Language\Englis h\Messages section.
How can I do this?
Can anybody show me some example?

Thank you.

[Jesper]

Hi David,

using System.Xml

Construct xml document using

XmlDocument doc = new XmlDocument;

Load document

doc.Load(file);

Now adress the text node

XmlNode node = doc.SelectSingl eNode("Language/English/Messages/Name/text()");

then read the value into a string

string foo = node.Value;

Use XPath expressions in the selectSingleNod e function!

Yep!

XmlNode node =
doc.SelectSingl eNode("Language s/Language[@Lnag='English']/Captions/Name/text()");

string foo = node.Value;

the [] brackets serve as filters setting a condition. @ indicate an attribute.

best regards Jesper
