Hi Riyas,
as earlier suggested.. you can directly write that xml file into a string and you can print on the webpage.


here textbox1 is a textbox with multiplelines...

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
    {
        string xmlData = System.IO.File.ReadAllText(@"C:\test.xml");
        System.IO.File.WriteAllText(@"C:\test.xml", xmlData);
        TextBox1.Text = xmlData;
    }
