XML ComboBox

[Thom Little]

I would like to have a combobox populated with the ID in each node of an XML
file. Is there a preferred way to do this? What was the source of your
information?

A stripped down copy of the XML file is ...

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<profiles>
<profile>
<id>One</id>
<buyer>X</buyer>
<card>X</card>X<seller>X</seller>
</profile>
<profile>
<id>Two</id>
<buyer>X</buyer>
<card>X</card>X<seller>X</seller>
</profile>
</profiles>

.... I would like the combobox entries to contain the names "One" and "Two".

Solution ...

XmlDocument document = new XmlDocument( );

document.Load( "c:\somedir\somefile.xml" );

XmlElement root = document.DocumentElement ;

XmlNodeList nodelist = root.SelectNodes( "//profile/id" );

foreach ( XmlNode node in nodelist )

cbProfileId.Items.Add( node.InnerXml );


.... and is particularly useful for setting up a LARGE configuration area
outside the Registry.
