How to Read data from a XML file based on some condition in C#?

You didn't mention based on what condition you want to read data but
Using linq you can do this.

You can also use the classes XDocument, XElement, XAttribute etc. in LINQ.
This approach is not strongly typed, but you have to read the structure manually.

System.Xml.Linq Namespace[^]

Small example:

XDocument xd = new XDocument();
xd.Load(@"SomeFile.xml");

// Get the first element with the name 'SomeNode'
XElement xe = xd.Element("SomeNode");
etc.

This is a good alternative to XSD if you only want to read the data.
