Question

I have the XMLDocument and I extract the following xml tags I want using the xmlDocument.SelectSingleNode("./tag") into a string and I want to load it inside a DataTable.

I tried using the dataTable.ReadXML(); but the overloads for this function do not allow a string argument.

Is there a better way of doing this?

Edit : Adding Code

XmlDocument xdoc = new XmlDocument();
xdoc.LoadXml(string_With_Xml);
DataTable accessTable = new DataTable();
accessTable.ReadXml();

I Hope this adds more context to the question.

You can try the following:

//Your xml
string TestSTring = @"<Contacts> 
                    <Node>
                        <ID>123</ID>
                        <Name>ABC</Name>
                    </Node>
                    <Node>
                        <ID>124</ID>
                        <Name>DEF</Name>
                    </Node>
            </Contacts>";
StringReader StringStream = new StringReader(TestSTring);
DataSet ds = new DataSet();
ds.ReadXml(StringStream);
DataTable dt = ds.Tables[0];
