Populating textboxes from a XML file.

I have a XML file in a configuration similar to the example below, now I have been able to load the XML file into my VB application and populate a Combo Box with all the Location tag infomation.

<Server>
<Location>Home</Location>
<Info1>String</Info1>
<Info2> String</Info2>
</Server>

Now what I can not seem to figure out how to do is that when I select an item from the combo box list. I would like to populate text boxes on the application form with the information from tags Info1 and Info2 based on the Location Tag selected.

Does anyone have any ideas on how to do this? I have been poaring over the MSXML 4.0 documentation all morning with little results.

Cheers,
Thom

1. Create a class (called ServerClass or something like that) to store the data from the XML.

Code:

---

Option Explicit

Public ServerLocation As String
Public ServerInfo1 As String
Public ServerInfo2 As String

---

2. Populate the collection as you read from your XML string and Add it to a Collection.

Code:

---

Dim clsServerClass As ServerClass
Dim colServerCollection As Collection

Set colServerCollection = New Collection

Do Until (End of XML File)
    Set clsServerClass = New ServerClass

    clsServerClass.ServerLocation = (XML Location)
    clsServerClass.ServerInfo1 = (XML Info1)
    clsServerClass.ServerInfo2 = (XML Info1)

    colServerCollection.Add clsServerClass, clsServerClass.ServerLocation  'Set ServerLocation to the Collection Key only if it's unique
Loop

---

3. When you choose from the combobox, fetch the correct Class info from the collection and use it to populate your textboxes:

Code:

---

Dim clsServerClass As ServerClass

Set clsServerClass = colServerCollection(Combobox.Text)  'Assuming that you populate the combobox with the ServerLocation

txtLocation.Text = clsServerClass.ServerLocation
txtInfo1.Text = clsServerClass.ServerInfo1
txtInfo2.Text = clsServerClass.ServerInfo2
