DataSet Read XML from string

Maziar Aflatoun · Aug 19, 2005

Hi,

I have ds.ReadXml(myXML); which reads an XML file into my DataSet. How can
I read my XML from a string instead of a file? Can someone please provide me
with a sample?

Thanks
Maz

Maz,

You can try using the version of DataSet.ReadXml which reads from a STREAM:

To create the STREAM from the STRING you have, use the StringStream class
suggested in:

Hi,

You can use the ReadXml( TextReader ) and initializate the TextReader with
yout string:

ds.ReadXml( new TextReader( yourstring), ... );
