Hi,

you need some variables when reading from the console. Here is a way to get a number (note the use of PRE tags for readability):

Console.WriteLine("please enter number:");
string s=Console.ReadLine();
int number;
bool OK=int.TryParse(s, out number);
if (OK) {
    Console.WriteLine("You entered the number "+number);
} else {
    Console.WriteLine("Unacceptable input: "+s);
}

Hi,

what brackets? do you mean the parentheses?

did you put your code inside a method, the method inside a class, the class inside a namespace?

if there is an error message, give it as is.
if it specifies a line number, check that line.
work on the first error message first.
and teach your IDE to always show line numbers, see #102 here[^]

Smile | :)

Dear Luc Pattyn,

I have fixed this problem, the problem was that one of the settings for c# was changed. I dont know how that happened. I just reset all the settings to default and that worked.

Thank you very much for helping,
Aman

What you can do is:
- add "(SOLVED)" to the subject line of the original post
- click "good answer" on the reply that did it for you (that removes it from the "unanswered questions" list)

hello everyone out there!
I have one problem and I hope someone can help me. There is one project what I am working on and is mostly data scraping and saving data in xml document. I have an option to create lists and then add data to the lists. For example, the user can create list for restaurants, and I am creating xml document just with one xml element: <restaurants>.
Then once I have all the data scraped I want to add xml nodes with the data what I have to the existing document. I am trying something like this:

string path = Properties.Settings.Default.XMLFolder + list + ".xml";
            XmlTextReader rdr = new XmlTextReader(path);
            XmlDocument doc = new XmlDocument();
            doc.Load(rdr);
 XmlNode nodeBusiness = doc.CreateNode(XmlNodeType.Element, "Business", string.Empty);
            nodeBusiness.Attributes.Append(attribute);
            docData.AppendChild(nodeBusiness);

I am getting an error at the last step: "This document already has a 'DocumentElement' node."

Can someone help me to solve this issue, thanks in advance. Laziale

docData.AppendChild(nodeBusiness);

to:

docData.DocumentElement.AppendChild(nodeBusiness);

Easiest way would be to map a network drive and create the file with File.Create method using the specified network path
