Solution 1

You have to Convert the Xml data to DataTable first and bind that DataTable object to GrideView;

C#

DataTable dt = new DataTable();
dt.ReadXml(@"filepath.xml");
GridView1.DataSource = dt;
GridView1.DataBind();

the solution is below

Versions objVersions = new Versions();
objVersions.Url = ConfigurationManager.AppSettings["SharepointVersionService"];
objVersions.Credentials = CreateCredentials();
XmlNode Result = objVersions.GetVersions(FileName);
if ((Result != null) & Result.InnerXml.Length > 0)
{
XmlTextReader objXmlTextReader = new XmlTextReader(Result.OuterXml, XmlNodeType.Element, null);
DataSet objDataSet = new DataSet();
objDataSet.ReadXml(objXmlTextReader);
Gridhistory.DataSource = objDataSet.Tables[3].DefaultView;
Gridhistory.DataBind();

}
