Populating Grid Control from XML File
In this article, I am going to teach you, how to populate grid view control using a XML File as Data Source.For using Customer.xml as data source, please refer my article “Populating Grid Control ,XML File and XSD File From Database”.
Procedure:-
- Add Customer.xml file using my article “Populating Data In XML And Grid” for populating grid control
- I have used ReadXml( ) to read the data content in my XML File.
- Server.MapPath( ) is used to get the exact location of the corresponding file.
