What is the best way to parse a Fix Protocol message in C#Parsing XML with prefix, xpath and XmlName

EDN Admin · Nov 19, 2012

Hi, good morning. 
 
Im trying to find a best way(with the best performance) to parse a Fix Protocol message. 
Then I made some functions that return a value if I give a Fix Message and a Fix field. They work pretty well but I dont know if is the best way to do this. 
See below: 
<div style="color:Black;background-color:White; <pre>
<span style="color:Blue; using System;
<span style="color:Blue; using System.Collections.Generic;
<span style="color:Blue; using System.Linq;
<span style="color:Blue; using System.Text;

<span style="color:Blue; namespace FixField
{
<span style="color:Blue; class Program
{
<span style="color:Blue; private <span style="color:Blue; const <span style="color:Blue; char cEql = (<span style="color:Blue; char)61;
<span style="color:Blue; private 
 
I am having problem in reading my XML with xPath and XmlNamespaceManager. Please help. 
 
Here is my VB Code: 
Dim xmlDoc, xmlAds As New XmlDocument() 
xmlDoc.Load(strXMLFile) 
Dim nsManager As New XmlNamespaceManager(xmlDoc.NameTable) 
nsManager.AddNamespace("onl", "http://www.saxotech.com/online stories.xsd") 
Dim StoryItems As XmlNodeList = xmlDoc.SelectNodes("onl:stories/onl:story/onl:content", nsManager) 
Response.Write(StoryItems.Item(0).SelectSingleNode("heading").InnerText) 
 
My XML File: 
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> 
<onl:stories xmlns
