Trying to iterate through XML files

I would like ask for some advice please, I am trying to create a program in C# but have the following problem. I am currently trying to loop through a batch of XML files that are stored in a folder. However, I just don't want to loop through the XML file name, as I need to check through all the nodes in each XML file(650 files) for certain values. I know how to loop through a specific Xml file but unsure of how to actually loop through all XMl files to retrieve the values inside the values. For now, all I have is code to read through a specific XML file as shown below. I would be grateful for any assistance in this matter.


c# Syntax (Toggle Plain Text) 
  1.  
  2. using System;
  3. using System.Collections.Generic;
  4. using System.ComponentModel;
  5. using System.Data;
  6. using System.Drawing;
  7. using System.Linq;
  8. using System.Text;
  9. using System.Windows.Forms;
  10. using System.Xml;
  11. using System.IO;
  12. using System.Xml.Linq;
  13.  
  14. namespace VoteProg_1
  15. {
  16.     public partial class Form1 : Form
  17.     {
  18.         public Form1()
  19.         {
  20.             InitializeComponent();
  21.         }
  22.  
  23.  
  24.         XmlTextReader XReader = new XmlTextReader      ("C:\\Users\\Mark\\Documents\\VoteResults2\\result001.xml");
  25.  
  26.          private void label1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
  27.         {
  28.  
  29.         }
  30.  
  31.         private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
  32.  
  33.         {     
  34.  
  35.            foreach (string fileName in XFiles)
  36.             {
  37.  
  38.  
  39.             while (XReader.Read()) 
  40.             {
  41.                 switch (XReader.NodeType) 
  42.                 {
  43.                     case XmlNodeType.Element: // The node is an element.
  44.                         textBox1.Text = XReader.Name.ToString();                        
  45.                         break;
  46.                     case XmlNodeType.Text: //Display the text in each element.
  47.                         textBox1.Text = XReader.Value.ToString();
  48.                         break;
  49.                     case XmlNodeType.EndElement: //Display the end of the element.
  50.                          textBox1.Text = XReader.Name.ToString();                        
  51.                         break;
  52.                 }
  53.             }                
  54.             }
  55.  
  56.            // textBox1.Text = XmlStr.ToString();
  57.  
  58.  
  59.             }                
  60.         }
  61.  
  62.         private void label13_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
  63.         {
  64.  
  65.         }
  66.  
  67.         private void Form1_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
  68.         {
  69.  
  70.         }
  71.  
  72.         private void button2_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
  73.         {
  74.  
  75.

It sounds as if you just need to iterate through files in a directory.
Here is an example of that:
C# Syntax (Toggle Plain Text) 
  1. using System;
  2. using System.IO;
  3.  
  4. namespace DW_FileLoop
  5. {
  6.    class Program
  7.    {
  8.       static void Main(string[] args)
  9.       {
  10.          string strRootDir = @"C:\Users\Mark\Documents\VoteResults2";
  11.          string[] arr_strFiles = Directory.GetFiles(strRootDir, "*.xml");
  12.  
  13.          foreach (string strFile in arr_strFiles)
  14.          {
  15.             Console.WriteLine("Processing: " + strFile);
  16.             //Call XML Processor here.
  17.          }
  18.       }
  19.    }
  20. }
