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.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Bind an XML file to a GridView

Asked by stanvickers in Programming for ASP.NET, Extensible HTML (XHTML)

Hi Experts,

I need to bind a basc XML file to a GridView.  I can read the XML into a ds, but when I bind nothing shows up... I also tried the dataview approach as listed in a couple of other questions.  I'm sure I'm all over it, but stuck again.  The XML and Code are below.  Thanks for the help.  

'-- The XML File --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

<?xml version="1.0" standalone="yes"?>
<Links xmlns="links">
  <xs:schema id="Links" targetNamespace="links" xmlns:mstns="links" xmlns="links" xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:msdata="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xml-msdata" attributeFormDefault="qualified" elementFormDefault="qualified">
    <xs:element name="Links" msdata:IsDataSet="true" msdata:UseCurrentLocale="true">
      <xs:complexType>
        <xs:choice minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="unbounded">
          <xs:element name="link">
            <xs:complexType>
              <xs:attribute name="text" form="unqualified" type="xs:string" />
              <xs:attribute name="url" form="unqualified" type="xs:string" />
            </xs:complexType>
          </xs:element>
        </xs:choice>
      </xs:complexType>
    </xs:element>
  </xs:schema>
  <link text="Report 1" url="~/Customer Data/File 1.xls" />
  <link text="Report 2" url="~/Customer Data/File 1.xls" />
  <link text="Report 3" url="~/Customer Data/File 1.xls" />
  <link text="Report 4" url="~/Customer Data/File 1.xls" />
</Links>

'-- CODE ( one of my attempts anyway ) -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

      Dim ds = New DataSet

      ds.ReadXml(Server.MapPath("~\App_Data\XMLCustomerReportsList.xml"), XmlReadMode.ReadSchema)


      gridCustReports.DataSource = ds.Tables("link").DefaultView
      gridCustReports.DataMember = "link"


      Page.DataBind()

'-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Thanks Again !
