search within xml

[annam1]

Hello.

i need to set up a search facility on my site, to search for keywords within an xml file. if the keyword is found i'll then need to return the parent nodes (depending on how far within the xml the keyword is i may need the grandparents etc) so that i can display the full text.

i have no idea if this is fairly beginner stuff or if its difficult to do..

any ideas on where i should start?

many tnx

Probably the easiest way is
Dim xmldset as new dataset
xmldsset.ReadXML(path to file)
then put dataset in to a dataview and filter.

Use could use the contains() function within xpath to search the text
