Preserving data types after reading in from an xml file

Hi, Suppose I have the following XML file: ... (more ''s) Is there any way for me to load the data from this file into a grid but have each column in the grid bound to the data typ specified in the file using C#? For instance, in the above example, after loading the XML file, my grid should have 3 columns (A, B, and C), where column A has data type "string", B has "int", and C has "float". Thanks, Clario

Your xml did not make it to the forum post. But you can dynamically set Types at runtime using ITypedList. Here is a forum thread that has a sample. It does not use XML, but it does dynamcally set types at runtime. Maybe you can do something similar. http://www.syncfusion.com/Support/Forums/message.aspx?MessageID=15207
