Question

Hi i want to include rss feeds in my winforms application and i want to show them in a panel with automatic scrolling from bottom to top (like in webapplications) is it possible? if so can you give me a simple example?

Thank you

A very brief overview:

• Get rss schema from http://www.thearchitect.co.uk/schemas/rss-2_0.xsd

• Generate C# class using xsd.exe.

  xsd rssschema.xsd /c

• Create a datagridview (turn on automatic scrolling)

• Bind the correct schema to the datagridview at compile time.

• Create a collection of rss object and set it as data source

• During runtime, make a http request and get rss feed (which should be a xml). Create a rss object out of this xml.Add it to the collection. (You will have to refer this link INotifyPropertyChanged)
