Reading and Writing to XML Files

[Guest]

I need to read and write to XML files. I am needing to insert news rows,
delete rows and update information in exisiting rows in different XML files.
There seems to be multiple ways to do this. What is the most optimal way or
the best practice for doing this? The XML files are specifically OPML and RSS
files. the RSS files may be fairly large as you can imagine but not too bad.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. I am looking for the optimal
performance above all else since I will be performaning these applications in
a windows client application on demand and on a schedule.

Thank you,
Brian Cooper

Hello Cooper,

if it's really big the good solution could be treat this file like simle
text file.
Hard to say what's the more adequate way for your, u need to measure by himself.

Using DOM is nog good idea, because as u said file is realy big. Then choose
betwet XmlReader/Writer and just text files
