xmldocument and nodes

Hello!

I want to make a xmlstructure like this:

Code:

---

<?xml version="1.0" ?>
  <ROOT>
      This is the text of the root element
      <SupplierID>
            Supplier id
            <SupplierName>Supplier name</SupplierName>
      </SupplierID>
  </ROOT>

---

This is my code so far:

Code:

---

  xmldoc = new XmlDocument();
            //let's add the XML declaration section
            xmlnode = xmldoc.CreateNode(XmlNodeType.XmlDeclaration, "", "");
            xmldoc.AppendChild(xmlnode);

            //let's add the root element
            xmlelem = xmldoc.CreateElement("", "ROOT", "");
            xmltext = xmldoc.CreateTextNode("This is the text of the root element");

            xmlelem.AppendChild(xmltext);
            xmldoc.AppendChild(xmlelem);

            //let's add another element (child of the root)
            xmlelem2 = xmldoc.CreateElement("", "SupplierID", "");
            xmltext = xmldoc.CreateTextNode("Supplier id");
            xmlelem2.AppendChild(xmltext);
            xmldoc.ChildNodes.Item(1).AppendChild(xmlelem2);

---

now my problem I don't know how to add a node into my first node SupplierID?

Try using the CreateStartElement() method when creating a parent node like that. Then use CreateElement() to append elements to the current parent node. Don't forget to call EndStartElement() for each CreateStartElement() call.

If you need to serialize/unserialize some data structures, you can use XmlSerializer. There is also a new set of classes for handling XML documents, XElement. For simple files like yours I think it's much easier to use.
