Is there any way to simalate the SQL TOP clause using XPath?
Or, in other words, how to get a fixed number of nodes through a XPath
query?
Thanks,

I'm trying to read a XML document with the following XPath code (programming
in VB .net):
Dim doc As XmlDocument = New XmlDocument()
doc.Load("c:\la2.xml")

i'm working on a windows application that will edit and create xml files from
another application. the original file is 83k, the one created by my vb.net
program is 153k but all i add is a new xmlelement when i use the other
program and add a xmlelement is only increased the file ...

I got a question on executing the xpath. Can someone let me know which way is
faster for the following two scenarios (one with XmlDocument and the other
using XmlDocument.CreateNavigator())?
XmlDocument doc = new XmlDocument();

"All XmlNodeList objects are synchronized with the underlying document,
therefore if you ... modify the value of a node, that node is updated in the
document it came from."
