Read XML file as DataSet
If you want to use a DataSet, it is very simple.
// Here your xml filestring xmlFile = "Data.xml";DataSet dataSet = new DataSet();dataSet.ReadXml(xmlFile, XmlReadMode.InferSchema);// Then display informations to testforeach (DataTable table in dataSet.Tables){ Console.WriteLine(table); for (int i = 0; i < table.Columns.Count; ++i) Console.Write("\t" + table.Columns[i].ColumnName.Substring(0, Math.Min(6, table.Columns[i].ColumnName.Length))); Console.WriteLine(); foreach (var row in table.AsEnumerable()) { for (int i = 0; i < table.Columns.Count; ++i) { Console.Write("\t" + row[i]); } Console.WriteLine(); }}If you want something faster, you can try with XmlReader which read line after line. But it is a bit more difficult to develop.You can see it here : http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/cc189056(v=vs.95).aspx
Other simple method is using "ReadXml" inbuilt method.
string filePath = "D:\\Self Practice\\Sol1\\Sol1\\Information.xml";DataSet ds = new DataSet();ds.ReadXml(filePath);Note: XML file should be orderly manner.
