Answer 1

Use a DataSet/DataTable and the program becomes trivial. Add two datagridviews to your form.

using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.ComponentModel;
using System.Data;
using System.Drawing;
using System.Linq;
using System.Text;
using System.Windows.Forms;

namespace WindowsFormsApplication1
{
    public partial class Form1 : Form
    {
        const string FILENAME = @"c:\temp\test.xml";
        AutoCount autoCount = new AutoCount();
        public Form1()
        {
            InitializeComponent();

            autoCount.ds.WriteXml(FILENAME, XmlWriteMode.WriteSchema);
            dataGridView1.DataSource = autoCount.ds.Tables["AutoCount"];
            dataGridView2.DataSource = autoCount.ds.Tables["Sales"];

        }
        public class AutoCount
        {
            public DataSet ds {get; set;} 


            public AutoCount()
            {
                ds = new DataSet();
                DataTable autoCount = new DataTable("AutoCount");
                ds.Tables.Add(autoCount);
                DataTable sales = new DataTable("Sales");
                ds.Tables.Add(sales);

                autoCount.Columns.Add("Product", typeof(string));
                autoCount.Columns.Add("Version", typeof(string));
                autoCount.Columns.Add("CreatedApplication", typeof(string));
                autoCount.Columns.Add("CreatedBy", typeof(string));
                autoCount.Rows.Add(new string[] {
                    "AutoCount Accounting",
                    "1.5",
                    "BApp",
                    "Business Solutions"
                });

                sales.Columns.Add("DocNo", typeof(string));
                sales.Columns.Add("Item", typeof(string));
                sales.Columns.Add("Qty", typeof(int));
                sales.Columns.Add("Price", typeof(double));

                sales.Rows.Add(new object[] {
                    "S0001",
                    "XXX",
                    2,
                    6.00
                });

                sales.Rows.Add(new object[] {
                    "S0002",
                    "YYY",
                    3,
                    50.00
                });

            }
        }

    }
}
