Here is simple example. There are many other ways to do this.

private void Page_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{

//Use an xmlDocument
XmlDocument doc = new XmlDocument();

//Load the XML document. You can also load from a file
doc.LoadXml(@"<root>
<category name='name'>innerCat1
<element att1='dd' att2='Sfw' att3='value' />
</category>
<category name='name2'>innerCat2
<element att1='value' att2='value' att3='value' />
</category>
</root>");
//Use XPath to select nodes
XmlNode node = doc.SelectSingleNode(@"root/category");

//Assign values to textboxes
//Value form element
TextBox1.Text = node.SelectSingleNode("element").Attributes["att1"].Value;
//Value from node inner text
TextBox2.Text = node.InnerText;

}
