MSXML or .NET

[JohnArgost]

I try to learn how to parser XML files. Should I learn MSXML or .NET
(system.xml) or both. Is MSXML an old technology which is replaced by .NET?
Thanks in advance.

Learn XmlDocument and XmlReader classes in .Net

(system.xml) or both. Is MSXML an old technology which is replaced by
.NET? Thanks in advance.

Yes.

Learn XPath query as well.

John,

Depends where you want to use it, is it only in C# than you can use .Net
only, however when you need to do things as well on client side with java
script you still are sticked to MSXML or any other method.

Just my thought,

Cor

MSXML is not considered an old technology. As a matter of fact, a new
version is installed for the new version of SQL Server or VS.NET (I can't
remember which).

If you're writing a .NET application, use the .NET APIs! That means
system.xml.
