Hello All, Need your help. I have a folder with many xml files inside sub folders. I want to go through all the folders and look for file name with ABC.xml and search for a tag with key “TestTag” and if it exists get the value of that key. Example: The folder D:/TestFolder has subfolders and the file ABC.xml exists under D:/TestFolder/TestingFiles which has key “TestTag” as below (I may have many such ABC.xml files in different sub folders and need to go thru all those files) 
<list>
<struct>
<myTag id="key">Testing</myTag>
<myTag id="value">testValue1</myTag>
</struct>
<struct>
<myTag id="key">TestTag</myTag>
<myTag id="value">MyValue</myTag>
</struct>
<struct>
<myTag id="key">OneTwoThree</myTag>
<myTag id="value">true</myTag>
</struct>
<struct>
<myTag id="key">ThisIsNot</myTag>
<myTag id="value">testValue2</myTag>
</struct>
</list>

Output Expected: 
FilePath1 --> D:/TestFolder/TestingFiles --> Value --> MyValue
FilePath2 --> FilePath --> Value --> Value (if second file exists with
+ the search key)
