Dynamic Xml file name

Question

Hey guys, i wanted to ask if i can make the file name in XmlDocument load() dynamic. the reason i ask is because the examples i have seen online, the file names are statically placed in the load function.

C#

XmlDocument doc1 = new XmlDocument();
 doc1.Load("books.xml");

so can i do something like

C#

public loadXml (string filename)
{
 XmlDocument doc1 = new XmlDocument();
 doc1.Load(filename);
}

And also i read the documentation,but i am not sure. So i you can help me clarify, does the xmlDocument.load() call the XmlTextreader by default or am i gonna have to do that myself
[load Method^]
thanks for your help.

Yes, you can.

Your are advised to try out what you are unsure about in little test programs and run them in debug mode to see what is happening.

This is a very powerful technique which will serve you even when you are skillful.
