XML format problem

Alok Uniyal

Hello all,

I have a field 'Tax' of data type 'xml' in my table. On button click data saved successfully in 'Tax' field. I want to retrieve that data and bind it to a gridview.

I use this to bind :

DataSet ds = new DataSet();

ds.ReadXml(s);

GridView1.DataSource = ds.Tables[0].DefaultView;

But it is giving a runtime error "Illegal characters in path".

I am using following xml format:

VAT

5.00

Other Tax

6.00

Custom Tax

6.00

Hello Alok,

Try this,

DataSet ds = new DataSet();
ds.ReadXml(new System.IO.StringReader(s));
GridView1.DataSource = ds.Tables[0].DefaultView;
