here is my code:

XElement doc = XElement.Load("~/App_Data/test_xml.xml");

            TreeNode Feature;
            TreeNode User;
            foreach (XElement state in doc.Descendants("FEATURE"))
            {
                Feature = treeview.Nodes.Add(state.Attribute("NAME").Value);
                foreach (XElement region in state.Descendants("USER"))
                {
                    User =
                        Feature.Nodes.Add(region.Attribute("NAME").Value);
                    foreach (XElement area in region.Descendants("NAME"))
                    {
                        User.Nodes.Add(area.Attribute("NAME").Value);
                    }

You can use XmlDataSource as Jeremy suggested or change code as below

XElement doc = XElement.Load("~/App_Data/test_xml.xml");
TreeNode root = new TreeNode("FEATURES");
foreach (XElement state in doc.Descendants("FEATURE"))
{
    TreeNode feature = new TreeNode(state.Attribute("NAME").Value);
    foreach (XElement region in state.Descendants("USER"))
    {
        TreeNode user =  new TreeNode(region.Attribute("NAME").Value);
        foreach (XElement area in region.Descendants("NAME"))
        {
            user.ChildNodes.Add(new TreeNode(area.Attribute("NAME").Value));
        }
        feature.ChildNodes.Add(user);
    }
    root.ChildNodes.Add(feature);
}
treeview.Nodes.Add(root);

I get the FEATURE Nodes but not the USER Nodes :/ – Tarasov May 28 '13 at 07:26
@Tarasov As per given XML you will get User nodes but not below that, becouse there is no decedents to User nodes – Damith May 28 '13 at 07:56
ok it works ...do you know how I can use the click Event if I click on a node in the treeview and want this value? – Tarasov May 28 '13 at 08:05
@Tarasov StackOverflow is not like forum, you need to ask new question if it is not directly related to current question, any way check this link http://forums.asp.net/t/1116843.aspx/1 – Damith May 28 '13 at 08:13
