Hello Mohammed,

I would suggest you to enable the LoadOnDemand mechanism of the RadComboBox, in order to use the ItemsRequested event handler to determine whether the "admin" is filled in the input of the control. Thus you could find the needed nodes in the XML file and create RadComboBoxItems. I have prepared a sample page for you, demonstrating the implementation of the above suggestion.
