The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

The Grade of the Solution
The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
The Number of Author and Expert Comments
The Number of Experts Contributing
The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

How to read a XML file in VB.NET

Asked by vb2009 in Microsoft Visual Basic.Net

Tags: microsoft, VB.NET, 2008, VB.NET, IE7

So I am trying to obtain some of the information from a XML file.
The issue I am having is my code is getting the first parts of what I want which are the rol obj_name and the user account_name but for some reason I can not figure out how to obtain the permission value.

So for example if I was to plug into Role_Search_Value_1.Text the value of afarner I should get a return of the role obj_name which would be Logistics, the account_name which would be afarner because thats who we searched for with the above code and the permission which would be 000F. For some reason I am not getting the permission though. I am very new to reading XML so I think I am not doing something right with xpath.

So the way it should work is a user inputs a user name they are looking for which is assigned to Role_Search_Value_1.Text. The code should then return the information if that user is found along with the role obj_name they belong to, their account_name which would be in the Role_Search_Value_1.Text anyway and the permission.

Can somebody please guide me through it and show me where I am going wrong?
I am doing this through VB.NET

Thank you in advance.
