you asked "how" above my reply, i gave you an answer (although thats not the only way, just the easiest to understand from what i have run across)...

your option to "get into" datasets and making working with XML more .NET-like and less TextFile-like

I'm working on it! I've build a website which completely runs on a Site.config file, so I can read it, but updating is a different story .

Thanks! That little piece of code changed the way I handle XML! Using datasets never really occurred to me..

Anyway, I have the following situation (New code always causes new problems)



<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>


<Configuration>


<Cryptography>


<Key1> 710398740561298347056981239847105601928347019856029384719856 012934098</Key1>


<Key2> 091098703948701928709870981230986501928370651982706519283470 615347913</Key2>


</Cryptography>


</Configuration>

Now I want to retrieve the keys, so I made the following line of code:



 objDataSet.Tables.Item("Cryptography").Columns("Key1").ToStr ing

This returns 'Key1', the name of the collum. How can I get the XML inner text, or the value? I've tried quite a few things, including the container.components, but it just won't work. Any ideas?

Try

objDataSet.Tables("Cryptography").Rows(0).Items("Key1")

(you need to increment 0 row for the row heres how to loop through)

Dim RowCount As Integer = objDataSet.Tables("Cryptography").Rows.Count

Dim i As Integer

For i = 0 To RowCount - 1
Dim value As String objDataSet.Tables("Cryptography").Rows(i).Items("Key1")

...

 Fantastic. I forgot about the .Rows(0).. Anyway, thanks, now I can also update it the same way (little modified, but same idea)!

This is great, the code I made requires 3 lines, and takes away all the XML node stuff. Really
