.NET Classes used :

System.Xml;
System.IO;

Is System.Xml a class ? I thought it is a namespace.

XmlTextReader xReader = new XmlTextReader(xmlFrag, XmlNodeType.Document, null );
while(xReader.Read())
{
if(xReader.Name.ToLower() == "title")
{
//string oldfile = @"C:\MyOldFile.txt";
string title = xReader.ReadInnerXml();
this.listView2.Items.Add(title);
index++;
this.listView2.Items[index-1].SubItems.AddRange(new string[] {"","","","",""});
//StreamWriter oldsw = File.AppendText(oldfile);
//oldsw.WriteLine(title);
//oldsw.Close();
}
if((xReader.Name.ToLower() == "dc:pubdate") || (xReader.Name.ToLower() == "pubdate") || (xReader.Name.ToLower() == "date") || (xReader.Name.ToLower() == "dc:date") || (xReader.Name.ToLower() == "lastbuilddate") || (xReader.Name.ToLower() == "dc:lastbuilddate"))
{
try
{
string date = xReader.ReadInnerXml();
DateTime dateObj = DateTime.Parse(date);
this.listView2.Items[index-1].SubItems[1].Text = dateObj.ToString();
//row_index Column_index
}
catch
{
//MessageBox.Show(e.ToString());
}
}
