Cannot get datagrid to display data

[=?Utf-8?B?VG9yZW4gVmFsb25l?=]

Hi, I have an XML file that I was hoping to use as a database
Here is the code that I have copied that should display the data

namespace File_Generation _System
{
public partial class vrholds : Form
{
public vrholds()
{
InitializeCompo nent();

XmlDataDocument xmlDatadoc = new XmlDataDocument ();
xmlDatadoc.Data Set.ReadXml("vr database.xml");
DataSet ds = new DataSet("vrdata DataSet");
ds = xmlDatadoc.Data Set;
dataGridView1.D ataSource = ds.DefaultViewM anager;
}

But what I get is a blank square when my form loads. Here is the XML

I think there is something wrong with your XML.

Try this change and see if it leads you in the right direction?

GridView1.DataS ource = ds; //.DefaultViewMan ager;
GridView1.DataB ind();

jmsides, thanks but I am not using a ASP page or server script, I am
importing those libraries and the VS2005 intellisense does not allow me to
use gridview1.datab ind().
