You could parse the nodes yourself if the file has a basically simple structure, e.g. something similar to:
<root><br />
<node ... >...</node><br />
<node ... >...</node><br />
<node ... >...</node><br />
<node ... >...</node><br />
<node ... >...</node><br />
... lots'a nodes<br />
<node ... >...</node><br />
</root>
By reading the file in small parts, you could extract the complete nodes you find in that part of the file, put them in a separate xml document in a string and load it into a XmlDocument object.
Pseudo code:
buffer = ""<br />
loop {<br />
buffer += stream.Read(lotsabytes)<br />
find first "<node>" in buffer<br />
find last "</node>" in buffer<br />
nodes = get what's between<br />
buffer = what's after<br />
xmldoc.LoadXml("<root>" + nodes+ "</root>")<br />
... do whatever you want with the nodes<br />
}

I see what you're getting at, thanks!

I believe the XMLDataReader provides a solution that reads the file as it parses it. If not, there must be some control that works as SAX instead of DOM, and doesn't hold the whole file in memory.

Yes, take the SAX approach -- open it as a Stream and use XmlTextReader. Not only will it help in not running out of memory, but it would be faster than the DOM approach even if you did have enough memory to load the whole thing.
Stream stream = new FileStream(fileName, FileMode.Open);
XmlTextReader reader = new XmlTextReader(stream);
reader.WhitespaceHandling = WhitespaceHandling.None;
while (reader.Read())
{
...
}
This is also a lot better idea than parsing the file with regular expressions, or worse, junk like text.IndexOf(blah), especially when you consider the fact that there is no guaranteed that a whole xml file isn't a single line of text (then you are back to loading the whole thing into memory, probably).

Hmm... I think soap and water will help with that. If not you should probably see a doctor.

I have a custom control that I'm writing, and one of its properties is a collection. Everything works fine, except that the collection property shows a bolded (Conditions) value for it. I'd like to remove the bolding, and I'm ditzing on how to do this. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.

See, that's what I thought, too. I couldn't make either combinatin work, though it's completely feasible that I'm just missing something. I'll post the answer when/if I find it. Thanks, though.

Summary Question: How can I do pointer fix uping using XML Serialization?
I'm getting tripped up over one idea when performming XML serialization.
Lets say I have a simple class structure where Students have Teachers.
<br />
class Teacher<br />
{<br />
public string name;<br />
}<br />
<br />
class Student<br />
{<br />
public Teacher mTeacher;<br />
}<br />
<br />
main<br />
{<br />
Teacher teacher = new Teacher();<br />
teacher.name = "Mr Smith";<br />
<br />
Student [] students = new Student[2];<br />
<br />
students[0] = new Student();<br />
students[1] = new Student();<br />
<br />
students[0].mTeacher = teacher;<br />
students[1].mTeacher = teacher;<br />
<br />
...<br />
<br />
SERIALIZE students[]<br />
...<br />
DESERIALIZE students[]<br />
<br />
}<br />
What I'm finding is that when I serialize/deserialize, I'll find that each student has their own unique teacher "Mr Smith" rather than both students sharing the same teacher.
When I do this kind of serialization using a BinaryFormatter I find that the teacher is not created twice and that the serializer realizes that this object has already been serialized and essentially stores a pointer and when the object is serialized, that pointer is fixed up.

IIRC, the XML Serializer doesn't support object pointers. The values they point to are searialized. I THINK! I can't confirm this or find the concrete docs that explain this.

I cannot imagine it would matter whether you use BinarySerialization or XML serialization; fact is, the serializer has no idea about whose point to whom. You're going to have to manually set the teacher reference to share the same object if you it to act that way.

Wow. I stand corrected. Thanks for the info.

There is alot of potential problems though.
If your app relies on instances serialized in its runtime then you have to do fixups when deserializtion (that is if you can 'reset' the app state). The big problem now is how to correctly identify the type 'value' and hence map it, as the deserialized object and the currentobject will be a memberwiseclone of each other, but still 2 objects. If you have a valuetype, then you wont have this case. So the only other way is mutable and unmutable reference classes. Typically you would just override equals and hashcode and this would work fine on a hashtable. But as soon as you have a mutable object, where the hashcode is dynamic it gets tricky.
A solution to this problem is to have a fixup hashtable mapping T to T. Then at deserialization you do fixups[myobj] = myobj, and allways use fixups[myobj] to retrieve the actual object. Its all a bit tricky, but it works well

Add a WebBrowser control from the toolbox, then you can navigate to a webpage with code such as;
webBrowser1.Navigate("http://www.codeproject.com");

You can't. Safe mode is only available on boot.

Far from simple. You're looking at using the Windows Power Management functions to set a wake timer and put the system in StandBy. See this[^] for more information. I wasn't able to find any examples of anyone using this. It's just functionality that's rarely ever used from inside an application.

Is it possible that you mean "Sleep" or "Standby" instead (S3/S1) ?
If you want to "force" your computer into Safe-Mode (which you get when you boot, press F8 and mark "safe mode"), you will have to deliberately crash your computer in a bad way, so that Windows (on reboot) automatically chooses "Safe Mode" because it thinks that it might be broken.
Well, that might happen. If you try to force your computer into a failsafe modus, you might DESTROY your data in the process, so I sincerely suggest you dont try it.
Cheers,
Sebastian

f4.Width = 300;
f4.Height = 300;
f1.Width = f2.Width = f3.Width = f4.Width;
f1.Height = f2.Height = f3.Height = f4.Height;
