Load a xml file on disc into two diffrent XmlDocuments

[Guest]

I have created to XmlDocument objects. Can they both .Load the same file? Or
if the first one loads a file is it locked? I am trying to load an xml file
again but the object's value keeps on being nothing.

Hi

Based on my test, two xmldocuments can work with one xml file.
Here is my test code.
XmlDocument doc = new XmlDocument();
doc.Load("c:\\test.xml");
Console.WriteLine(doc.FirstChild["computername"].InnerText);
XmlDocument doc1 = new XmlDocument();
doc1.Load("c:\\test.xml");
Console.WriteLine(doc1.FirstChild["computername"].InnerText);
