aspx thread: Relational XML Data


Message #1 by Scott Watermasysk <swatermasysk@C...> on Tue, 8 May 2001 15:45:42 -0400
Hello All.



I am still very new to XML, hence all of the questions.



I have a relational XML file that I am trying to bind to a datagrid or two.



I guess a good example would be a resume. My question is how can I access

the Data inside of the <Experience> tags using a datagrid.



In the past (OK a couple of hours ago) I used

<property name="Columns"> 

<ASP:BoundColum DataField="Name"/>

...



But I can't seem to get it to read the details of the Experience Tag

(Company, Title, ...etc).



Will I need to Datagrids (One for the top level stuff, and another for the

Experience details)?

Is it possible to select Experience/Company?



Thanks

Scott



Sample XML Resume:

    <Title>Web Dude with little knowledge of XML</Title>

    <DateStart>March 1, 2000</DateStart>

    <DateStart>March 2, 2001</DateStart>

    <Description>I did some work</Description>

There has been quite a lot of discussion about the ways that you might 

attempt nested data binding, and I reckon you'll see more opportunties in 

Beta 2. Meanwhile, I've seen a few ads in things like MSDN magazine and 

others from third-party suppliers who are building data-grid controls that 

have all kinds of bells and whistles built-in, such as hierarchical data 

support and collapsible displays.
