  hey everyone
  could some please help with this program
  i have to read a file that's like this
  

  
  <?xml version="1.0"?>
  <portfolio>
  <investment>..........</investment>
  <investment>..........</investment>
  <investment>..........</investment>
  </portfolio>
  

  
  i have to skip the header and footer and process only the records that start with <investment>, then parse the information in order to extract the data items and create an investment object and then add them to the object to the portfolio.
  i have searched all over the web but couldn't find anything that would help me accomplish this.

  You will need to use a library. The ones I used is Xerces and Xalan:
