How to use xml file in asp.net?

[rajanji]

Dear All,

I am using an httpapi and i get an xml output in return from that. I am newbie to this and dont know how to process the returned xml. Kindly advice how to use this online xml file into my application to display to the user . The format of xml file is as follows :-

- <hashtable>
- <entry>
<string>abc.net </string>
- <hashtable>
- <entry>
<string>statu s</string>
<string>regthro ughothers</string>
</entry>
- <entry>
<string>classke y</string>
<string>dotne t</string>
</entry>
</hashtable>
</entry>
- <entry>
<string>abc.org </string>
- <hashtable>
- <entry>
<string>statu s</string>
<string>regthro ughothers</string>
</entry>
- <entry>
<string>classke y</string>
<string>domor g</string>
</entry>
</hashtable>
</entry>
- <entry>
<string>abc.inf o</string>
- <hashtable>
- <entry>
<string>statu s</string>
<string>regthro ughothers</string>
</entry>
- <entry>
<string>classke y</string>
<string>dominfo </string>
</entry>
</hashtable>
</entry>
- <entry>
<string>abc.com </string>
- <hashtable>
- <entry>
<string>statu s</string>
<string>regthro ughothers</string>
</entry>
- <entry>
<string>classke y</string>
<string>domcn o</string>
</entry>
</hashtable>
</entry>
</hashtable>

It is checking the where domain abc.net, abc.or,abc.com, abc.info are availabe or not..

Now, How to load this in DataSet. Because while loading in dataset its giving error like :-

A column named 'string' already belongs to this DataTable: cannot set a nested table name to the same name.

Please Help



Thanks a ton in advance.
