Read XML File in Dataset And Bind To GridView In Asp.Net Using C#.Net

8/10/2015 - By Pranav Singh 0

This article will show you how you can read xml file into dataset and bind it to gridview control using c#.net in asp.net.




Here is the ML code.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<students>
  <student>
    <id>1</id>
    <name>Student 1</name>
    <address>Address 1</address>
  </student>
  <student>
    <id>2</id>
    <name>Student 2</name>
    <address>Address 2</address>
  </student>
  <student>
    <id>1</id>
    <name>Student 3</name>
    <address>Address 3</address>
  </student>
  <student>
    <id>1</id>
    <name>Student 4</name>
    <address>Address 4</address>
  </student>
</students>

Now we will add gridview control in it.  After adding this control have a look the html code of the page.

<%@ Page Language="C#" AutoEventWireup="true" CodeBehind="WebForm19.aspx.cs" Inherits="WebApplication2.WebForm19" %>

<!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>Read XML File in Dataset And Bind To GridView In Asp.Net Using C#.Net</title>
</head>
<body>
    <form id="form1" runat="server">
    <div>
        <asp:GridView ID="GridView1" runat="server" Width="100%">
        </asp:GridView>
    </div>
    </form>
</body>
</html>

Now take a look of the below code.

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Web;
using System.Web.UI;
using System.Web.UI.WebControls;
using System.Data;

namespace WebApplication2
{
    public partial class WebForm19 : System.Web.UI.Page
    {
        protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
        {
            string filepath = @"\XMLDataFile\XMLFile1.xml";
            DataSet objds = new DataSet();
            objds = ReadXMLFile(filepath);
            if (objds.Tables[0].Rows.Count > 0)
            {
                GridView1.DataSource = objds.Tables[0];
                GridView1.DataBind();
            }
        }
        /// <summary>
        /// Function to read xml data in dataset
        /// </summary>
        /// <param name="filePath"></param>
        /// <returns></returns>
        private DataSet ReadXMLFile(string fileFinalPath)
        {
            DataSet objds = new DataSet();
            objds.ReadXml(Server.MapPath(fileFinalPath));
            return objds;
        }
    }
}

In above code I have created a function which will read the xml file into the dataset by passing the file path into the dataset ml reader. In above code I have used server.mappath to read the xml file path. Now we have done. Run the application to check the output.
