Reading in a XML File

Hello,
I have a very large XML file 20MB and wanted to know if there is some way I could read it into a datasource.

I have to check the XML file for an occurrence of a certain element. If the file contains the element 'Program_ID', I mark the test case as Pass.

What would be the best way to do this.

Thanks

Ali

    I tried using 2 datasources.

    1. use directory datasource first to read the xml file
    2. use xml datasource to read the imported file in XML format.

    Since the file is quite large, soapui runs out of memory.

    any way to read the file in smaller chunks ?
