Visual Basic 2005 XML Programming Using XML DOM - Sample XML document: source
(Page 2 of 6 )
Now that we understand the structure of the sample XML document (from the previous section), we need to have some sample XML data to work with .NET.
The following is the XML source used as a sample in the .NET application. It follows the same structure as explained in the previous section. I named it MyXML.xml.
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
