How To Read XML File In DataSet And Display in DataGridview Using C#.Net

This article will show you how to read xml file in dataset and display in datagridview c#. In this I have a method to read the xml data and save it into dataset.

Some of my previous articles are as follows: Read XML File in DataTable and Bind to DataList In Asp.Net Using C#.Net, How To Read XML File in DataTable Using C#.Net In Asp.Net MVC, Bind XML File Data to Gridview By Category and SubCategory in Asp.Net MVC Using C#.Net, Bind XML File Data to Gridview By Category and SubCategory in Asp.Net Using C#.Net, Read XML File Data Using Linq Query and Add in DataTable to Bind GridView in Asp.net Using C#.Net, Bind & Search XML File Data and Display in GridView in Asp.net Using C#.Net, Bind Asp.net DropdownList Control by XML File Data Using DataSet in C#.Net, Bind Asp.net ListBox Control by XML File Data Using DataSet in C#.Net, CheckBoxList Bind By Using XmlDataSource in Asp.Net.

So for this article first we will create a new asp.net application and add an xml file into bib directory as shown below.

Now take a form and add a datagridview control in it.

After this add the below code into the form cs file.

using System; using System.Collections.Generic; using System.ComponentModel; using System.Data; using System.Drawing; using System.Linq; using System.Text; using System.Windows.Forms; namespace WindowsFormsApplication4 {     public partial class Form1 : Form     {         public Form1()         {             InitializeComponent();         }         private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)         {             string filepath = @"\XMLDataFile\XMLFile1.xml";             DataSet objds = new DataSet();             objds = ReadXMLFile(filepath);             if (objds.Tables[0].Rows.Count > 0)             {                 dataGridView1.DataSource = objds.Tables[0];             }         }         /// <summary>         /// Function to read xml data in datatable         /// how to read xml file in dataset in c#         /// </summary>         /// <param name="filePath"></param>         /// <returns></returns>         private DataSet ReadXMLFile(string filePath)         {             DataSet objds = new DataSet();             string fileFinalPath = AppDomain.CurrentDomain.BaseDirectory + filePath;             objds.ReadXml(fileFinalPath);             return objds;         }     } }

In above code I have used dataset xml reader to read the file at the given path and store it into dataset object. Now we have done run the application to check the output.
