    You can also use the System.DAta.DataSet class, and its ReadXml method.

    Dim myDataSet As System.Data.DataSet
    myDataSet.ReadXml("c:\xmlfiles\xmlfile.xml")
    TextBox1.Text = myDataSet.Tables(0).Rows(0)("FirstColumnName")

    Hope that helps too!  System.XML is good for more complex XML files also.

    You need to add a reference to the System.Xml.dll file and then use Imports System.Xml to import the classes for that namespace.  Those classes are used to read xml.
