Hi all,
I have the following xml file...
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<Assembly>
<!--

I've just come across the dataset.ReadXml method and like the look of it as
a good way of grabbing the content of the xml file ready to iterate/parse.
I've had a look at the contents of the dataset after reading in the above
file....and I'm happy with most of it... apart from the 5th table that it
creates which is the "Change" table.... based on the above it will contain 4
rows... how do I determine which of those 4 rows (ie, each <change></change>
node above) belong to the appropriate <Release> node?
I saw a ParentRelations.ParentTable - but if I have to put in a hell of a
load of checks to check which table we're working through then its not far
from the piles of code I'd already written (and will probably now be
binning) that was parsing the xml file node by node previously (without the
dataset)..
I was hoping to just For Each DataRow In DataTable.Rows kinda thing to get
the information I require...
Any information would be appreciated...
Kind regards
Rob Meade
