2. Enter a name for your data set in the Data Set Name field or keep the default suggestion.
3. Click Browse to locate your XML data file. Either a local XML file in the site or an online file with
an absolute URL can be used. However, the XML file must be located within the same domain as
the current page for security reasons.
4. When the Select XML Data dialog box opens, navigate to your XML file and click OK. If you??™re
working with a Web application that creates your XML file dynamically, choose Design Time Feed
to select an example XML file to use in page development.
5. Click Get Schema to read the structure of the selected XML file and displays the results in the
Row Element area, shown in Figure 18-3.
