Casting from XmlNode to an inherited calss from XmlElement

Hello,
I have an inherited class from XmlElement with this name: XmlElementCF
I have added a function in XmlElementCF that returns a XmlNode, the
node type is Element. I can cast the returned node to XmlElement but
can not cast the returned node to XmlElementCF, I am getting an error
: Specified cast is not valid.
I want to cast the returned node to my inherited class XmlElementCF.
Please Help.
Thanks
Parham

You can't cast a reference to something which it actually isn't at
runtime.

You may want to create a constructor for XmlElementCF which takes an
XmlElement to copy data from (or just keep a reference to).

I am reading an XmlFile using XmlDocument and traverse through the XmlNode, as I read I need to append an attribute to the XmlNode on some conditions. I tried xmlNode.Attributes.Append() It takes only XmlAttribute and in this when I create a new XmlAttribute, it doesn't allow me to set the name and value as the name is only the readonly value. How can I achive this?
