use these two functions,

but first you have to download xml to a string with another function. It matter with respect to the source. For example if you want to take it from net u use CALL FUNCTION 'HTTP_GET'

but i dont know how to read a local file. But you can find it with a search.

At the end you will have the xml in an internal table. Then you can again parse it for your own usage.

Hope it will help
