populate a treeview with xml file using c#

Question

Im using c#.net windows form application. I have an xml file that contains nodes. I need to populate a treeview with the nodes present in the xml file. Also avoid repeated node names. For this my idea is while populating the treeview, copy the node names into a list and there see if the node already exits. If it already exits, go to the next node else display it. List listOfNodes = new List();

listOfNodes.Add(xNode.Name.ToString()); //if (!(listOfNodes.Contains(xNode.Name.ToString())))

I was trying with this. but Im unable to do. Please suggest me with a proper code.

ya. ur right. I came to know that we can use xelement instead of xdocument. please help if u can — saeed

I suggest looking at some examples of binding xml to a TreeView using XmlDataProvider and HierarchicalDataTemplate. As the example in XmlDataProvider's documentation shows, the key to showing node name is to use Path="Name" instead of XPath in the binding.
