RESOLVED - readXml
nevermind i was able to get it to work... thanks anyways
I am pretty new at this - I am trying to read an xml file and use it in a repeater control. I was having problems with it and I found an example online. I can not seem to get the example to work either. I am not getting an errors, but no data is printing out.
Here is what is in the .aspx
Any suggestions on what might be wrong? If I switch to the design view I can see the table and all the databound fields, but when I run it, nothing is showing up.

VB.NET:
<%@ Import Namespace="System.Data" %>
<script runat="server">
sub Page_Load
if Not Page.IsPostBack then
dim mycdcatalog=New DataSet
mycdcatalog.ReadXml(MapPath("cdcatalog.xml"))
cdcatalog.DataSource=mycdcatalog
cdcatalog.DataBind()
end if
end sub
</script>
VB.NET:
<form id="Form1" runat="server">
<asp:Repeater id="cdcatalog" runat="server">
<HeaderTemplate>
<table border="1" width="100%">
<tr>
<th>Title</th>
<th>Artist</th>
<th>Company</th>
<th>Price</th>
</tr>
</HeaderTemplate>
<ItemTemplate>
<tr>
<td><%#Container.DataItem("title")%> </td>
<td><%#Container.DataItem("artist")%> </td>
<td><%#Container.DataItem("company")%> </td>
<td><%#Container.DataItem("price")%> </td>
</tr>
</ItemTemplate>
<FooterTemplate>
</table>
</FooterTemplate>
</asp:Repeater>
</form>
