I have tried mulitple ways to load the treeview and I cannot find one way that works.

 

For instance I have tried using this:

 

 

Where GetTransformedXmlDoc() returns a correct xml document as a string. All it does is give me XML errors and shows me a node that doesn't even exist in the xml string. This is what it tells me: "There is an error in XML document (1, 40)." When I check for the specific error message this is what I get: "<Nodes xmlns=''> was not expected."

Where that node comes from I have no idea. It's not in the xml I am looking at.



I have tried:

Where GetTransformedXmlDoc()  returns an XmlDataSource object. This sort of worked except I couldn't keep the root node from appearing in the treeview and it also screwed up the text properties of the nodes. Below is a sample xml doc in the exact same form as the one I am trying to load. I cannot set the DataTextField="Text" or the TextField="Text" because my root node doesn't contain that attribute. Is there a way around this?



I would appreciate any help as I have wasted the better part of 2 days trying to get this thing to load correctly.

Thanks Albert. I was able to get it working just fine.

XmlDataSource does not exist in WinForms, so what is the solution in a WinForms app?

AND I tried using the XML in your post (and the example)

Hello Joe,

What this means is that your xml file is malformed. I suggest exporting a treeview to xml and examining the generated file. Then all you will need to do is make your file look like the autogenerated one. Write again if you need further assistance.

Hmm, interesting. Especially since I get the exact same error with your XML:

Hello Joe,

You can also have a look at our XML binding documentation. We are ready to assist you if anything else comes up.
