//  The sample input XML is available at http://www.chilkatsoft.com/data/fruit.xml

    return;

//  Find the direct child node having the tag "meat", and
//  return a new instance of the XML object referencing the
//  child node, if found.

    textBox1.Text += "No direct child having the tag \"meat\" was found." + "\r\n";
}

}

//  The same can be accomplished without creating a new
//  XML object instance.  Instead, the FindChild2 method updates
//  the caller's internal reference to the found child, if successful.
success = xml.FindChild2("meat");
if (success == true) {
    //  Success!  The xml object now references the found child.
    textBox1.Text += "Content = " + xml.Content + "\r\n";
    //  Restore the reference back to the parent.
    xml.GetParent2();
}
else {
    textBox1.Text += "No direct child having the tag \"meat\" was found." + "\r\n";
