orderDetails then change the path as

Server.MapPath(”orderDetails/order.xml”)

sample code look like in Default.aspx.cs

protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
{

DataSet objDs = new DataSet();

//it does not contain any folder
objDs.ReadXml(Server.MapPath(”order.xml“));

//Inside orderDetails is foldername contain order.xml file
//objDs.ReadXml(Server.MapPath(”orderDetails/order.xml”));

GridView1.DataSource = objDs;
GridView1.DataBind();
