Our xml file's code looks this: Open the BulletedList's pop-up box and select datasource. Click on new datsource - change the name if you wish. Select XML from the list. Brows to the XML file you want to use. When you click OK VSD automatically looks in the XML file. In the first dropdownlist select text. In the second dropdownlist select url Hope this helps!
