Help with xml and .net

[xxjoebreadxx]

Hey guys, i'm using vb2005 which the code isn't too much different from .net so I figured you could help me.

I have an xml page sitting on a server. My program is looking to that xml page and populating a gallery container based off of nodes in the xml.

My question is....

each <GameIcon> and <FileName> in the xml have to be downloaded to the users local computer. I am wondering how on a button click I can go about this.

The program needs to first see if the file it is going to write is allready there. if not it writes the file. Can you help me out. Thanks

Use System.Xml classes to load your xml and iterate your nodes.
Use System.IO.File to manipulate your files.

Good luck.
