There are some standard methods available to read xml files.


Dim m_xmldoc As New XmlDocument                         'XML Document
Dim m_nodelist As XmlNodeList                           'XML Node List    
Dim m_nodeOA As XmlNode                                 'XML Node

1. either by loading xml file

m_xmldoc.LoadXml(strFilePath)

Try to avoid this method as this method throws an error while reading.
'The data at the root level is invalid'

2. by using path of xml file.

m_xmldoc.Load(strFilePath)

it actually populates the xml contents into xml document,and allows smooth reading of the same.

Read XML Nodes from Node list


  'Populate Node list
   m_nodelist = m_xmldoc.SelectNodes(NodePath)

   Read Nodes
   For Each m_nodeOA In m_nodelist
       m_nodeOA.ChildNodes.Item(0).FirstChild.Attributes.GetNamedItem (NamedAttribute)

   Next

This way you can retrieve all the values required.
