I have one XML file as:
Code:
<MenuItems>
  <Menu>
    <Caption>&amp;Set Field Identifier Prefix</Caption>
    <Action>SetFieldIdentifierPrefix</Action>
  </Menu>
  <Menu>
    <Caption>&amp;Remove Field Identifier Prefix</Caption>
    <Action>RemoveFieldIdentifierPrefix</Action>
  </Menu>
</MenuItems>

I want to iterate through all <Menu> items to show them on toolbar. So in c# I have:
Code:
private const string CAP = "/Caption";
private const string ACT = "/Action";
private const string XPATH_STRING = "/MenuItems/Menu";

XPathDocument XPathDoc = new XPathDocument(FileName);
XPathNavigator Navigator = XPathDoc.CreateNavigator();

string Caption = Navigator.SelectSingleNode(XPATH_STRING + CAP).Value;
string Action = Navigator.SelectSingleNode(XPATH_STRING + ACT).Value;
AddButton(Caption, Action);

This gives me only first menu. How should I iterate thro' all <Menu> in <MenuItems> so that I can have all menus on toolbar.

Thanx...

XPathDoc.SelectSingleNode("\\MenuItems");

XmlNode[] menuitems = XPathDoc.SelectNodes("Menu");

foreach (XmlNode item in menuitems)
{
Console.WriteLine(item.SelectSingleNode("Caption").Value);
Console.WriteLine(item.SelectSingleNode("Action").Value);
}



Something to that effect.
 
Thanx for your reply.
But I am not getting SelectSingleNode method with XPathDoc object.

What I'm missing in this context?

Thanx...
