Retrieve the Attribute value of XML node directly from VB Code

[kuttapan]

I am using a XML file to get data into my VB Application.
Is there a way to create a DOM object, and directly check the attribute value without looping?

Eg: Assume the xml file below

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<ErrorCodes>
<Error Number="1" Action="ResumeNext" Description="D1" />
<Error Number="2" Action="ResumeNext" Description="D2" />
</ErrorCodes>

In my VB Code can i directly check for the value for the attribute "Number" inside the <Error/> node?

Yes. And a quick key word search in this forum should find a number of examples of how to do it

Search on "XPath".
