Hi
Reading in XML file using C#, changing elements and saving back to the
file, how can i do that ? I want to be able to read an XML file and
read out Elements. for example
<name>Tom</tom>
When I read from a file i want to save the XML document in memory of
the computer and when i am finished flush it back to the file, that
means i want to be able to access the element in memory of the
computer and when i change it will write it back with new changes.
What is the Best way to do that ?
I have tried it wiht xmlReader and xmlWrite, this is not saved in the
computer.

Hi
When you want to read the XML file to memory, use:
XmlDataDocument myDoc = new XmlDataDocument ();
myDoc.Load( <filename>);
Then work with the DataDoc as normal to manipulate your data.
When you want to save the File back to the HDD, use normal File I/O to
overwrite your existing file. Get the file's contents from the
XmlDataDocument 's OuterXml property...

Hey,
I would just use a standard XmlDocument to do what your looking to do:
XmlDocument myDoc = new XmlDocument();
myDoc.Load(myfi le.xml);
myDoc.SelectSin gleNode("//username[@id=2]/username").Valu e = "myfirstpasswor d";
myDoc.Save(myfi le.xml);
myfile.xml
----------------
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<data>
<user id="2">
<username>tom </username>
<password>defau lt</password>
</user>
</data>

How can i use this if 2 users on different computers using the same file ?
i.e. how can i protect 2 people writing over the same file ?
Have a look at source/version control software too.
CVS is capable and free. Bit of a pain barrier if you havent used these
tools before but they are very good at what they do, i.e. booking and
catalogue system that prevents overwrites as you suggest. http://www.cvshome.org/

I need to read (unformatted text) from stdin up to EOF into a char
