How to generate XML file as follow, using XmlDocument.

[Abhijit D. Babar]

Hello,
I have to generate XML file as follow, using XmlDocument.
<Company>
< Employee EID=”111” Description=” xyz”>
<Dept DeptNo=”D10”>
<FirstNameAbhijit </FirstName>
<LastNameBabar </LastName>
</Dept>
<Dept DeptNo=”D20”>
<FirstNameSahine </FirstName>
<LastNameGhavane </LastName>
</Dept>
</Employee>

< Employee EID=”222” Description=” abc”>
<Dept DeptNo=”D10”>
<FirstNameSwapnil </FirstName>
<LastNameChavan </LastName>
</Dept>
</Employee>
</Company>
I have to add Dept node at runtime and not fix number, Dept node added
will be between 1 to 10. Sometimes I will add 2 Dept nodes;
sometimes I will add 10 Dept nodes. New node will append at the end
position.
Also I have to search Employee node from its EID, and Delete
particular node from EID.
Also all Dept node will be display when we select Particular EID from
Employee Node

How can I do this. Please give me hint. Thanks

This should get you started...

XmlDocument doc = new XmlDocument();
XmlElement root =
(XmlElement)doc.AppendChild(doc.CreateElement("Com pany"));
{
// loop over employees...
XmlElement emp =
(XmlElement)root.AppendChild(doc.CreateElement("Em ployee"));
emp.SetAttribute("EID", "111");
emp.SetAttribute("Description", "xyz");
{
// loop over depts
XmlElement dept =
(XmlElement)emp.AppendChild(doc.CreateElement("Dep t"));
dept.SetAttribute("DeptNo", "D10");

dept.AppendChild(doc.CreateElement("FirstName")).I nnerText =
"Abhijit";

dept.AppendChild(doc.CreateElement("LastName")).In nerText = "Babar";
}
}
string xml = doc.OuterXml;
// find employee...
XmlElement foundEmp = (XmlElement)doc.SelectSingleNode("/
Company/Employee[@EID='111']");
// remove employee..
foundEmp.ParentNode.RemoveChild(foundEmp);
