Gridview Export to XML in Asp.Net Using C#.Net

8/09/2014 - By Pranav Singh 0

This article will show you how you can export the gridview control to XML file using C#.net in asp.net. In this I will show you to export the file in a folder in the root directory present in folder.

Some of my previous articles are as follows: GridView Export to HTML in Asp.Net Using C#.Net and VB.Net, GridView Export to CSV in Asp.Net Using C#.Net and VB.Net, GridView Export to Word Document (.doc/.docx) in Asp.Net Using C#.Net, Code to Export GridView to PDF in Asp.Net Using C# and Vb.Net, Drag Drop Cells in GridView Control Using Asp.net C# and jQuery, GridView With Autocomplete Textbox Using AutoCompleteExtender in Asp.net Using C#.Net.
So for this article first we will first we will create a new asp.net application and add the gridview and a button control.

<%@ Page Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeBehind="XMLExport.aspx.cs" Inherits="ProjectDemo_Asp.et.PDFExport" %>

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head runat="server">
    <title>GridView Gridview Export to XML in Asp.Net Using C#.Net</title>
</head>
<body>
    <form id="form1" runat="server">
    <div>
   
        <asp:GridView ID="GridView1" runat="server" AutoGenerateColumns="False"
            BorderStyle="Solid" EmptyDataText="There are no data records to display.">
            <Columns>
                <asp:BoundField DataField="author_name" HeaderText="NAME" />
                <asp:BoundField DataField="publisher_name" HeaderText="PUBLISHER NAME" />
                <asp:BoundField DataField="publication_year" HeaderText="PUBLISH YEAR" />
                <asp:BoundField DataField="retail_price" HeaderText="PRICE" />
            </Columns>
            <HeaderStyle BackColor="#66CCFF" />
        </asp:GridView>
        <asp:Label ID="lblmessage" runat="server" style="color: #FF0000" Text=""></asp:Label>
        <br />
        <asp:Button ID="Button1" runat="server" onclick="Button1_Click"
            Text="Export To XML" />
   
    </div>
    </form>
</body>
</html>

Now we will check the code for exporting the gridview into xml.

using System;
using System.Web.UI;
using System.Data;
using System.Text;
using System.Web.UI.HtmlControls;
using System.IO;
using System.Data.OleDb;
namespace ProjectDemo_Asp.et
{
    public partial class PDFExport : System.Web.UI.Page
    {
        public string connectionstring = "Provider=Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0;Data Source=|DataDirectory|\\bookstore.mdb;Persist Security Info=False;";
        protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            if (!IsPostBack)
            {
                /*Data to display on screen*/
                DataTable _objdt = new DataTable();
                _objdt = GetDataFromDataBase();
                if (_objdt.Rows.Count > 0)
                {
                    GridView1.DataSource = _objdt;
                    GridView1.DataBind();
                }
            }
        }
        ///


        /// Function for binding retribing the data from database
        ///
        public DataTable GetDataFromDataBase()
        {
            DataTable _objdt = new DataTable();
            string querystring = "select * from Books;";
            OleDbConnection _objcon = new OleDbConnection(connectionstring);
            OleDbDataAdapter _objda = new OleDbDataAdapter(querystring, _objcon);
            _objcon.Open();
            _objda.Fill(_objdt);
            return _objdt;
        }
        ///


        /// Click event to export the grivview data into XML format
        ///
       protected void Button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            try
            {
                string xmlFileName = "Student.xml";

                /*Data to bind to gridview and then export to CSV*/
                DataTable _objdt = new DataTable();
                _objdt = GetDataFromDataBase();
                if (_objdt.Rows.Count > 0)
                {
                    GridView1.DataSource = _objdt;
                    GridView1.DataBind();
                }
                DataSet ds = new DataSet();
                DataTable dt = (DataTable)GridView1.DataSource;
                ds.Tables.Add(dt);
                ds.WriteXml(Server.MapPath("~/XML/" + xmlFileName));
                lblmessage.Text = "gridview exported successfully.";
            }
            catch (Exception ex)
            {
                lblmessage.Text = ex.Message.ToString();
            }

        }
        public override void VerifyRenderingInServerForm(Control control)
        {
            /* Verifies that the control is rendered */
        }
    }
}
        
In above code I have first bind the grid view code and then on button click event I have written code for export the code into xml. Now run the application and click on export button you will get the success message.


Now check the XML folder present int the application.


Now open the XML file to check the output.
