How to add new node with value?

[Lupina]

I want to create new node, and then save it to file.
I can add empty node with attributes, but I don't know how set new value for
the node:
String *strMake = this->txtMake->Text;
String *strModel = this->txtModel->Text;
XmlDocument* XmlDoc = new XmlDocument();

try {
// Get the XML file and load it in the XmlDocument variable
XmlDoc->Load(S"c:\\cars.xml");

// Create the new element
XmlElement *Elm = XmlDoc->CreateElement(S"car");

// Create its attributes
Elm->SetAttribute(S"Make", strMake);
Elm->SetAttribute(S"Model", strModel);

// I try set value like this :
Elm->Value="myvalue";
//but I get message :
// "Cannot set a value on node type : Element."

// Add the new element to the file...
XmlDoc->DocumentElement->AppendChild(Elm);
// ... and save the document
XmlDoc->Save(S"c:\\cars.xml");
}

I assume you want to have something like <foo>text</foo>? The "text"
in this example is a text node which generally needs to be created
separately and then appended to the foo element node, see e.g. the
documentation on System.Xml.XmlText.

It works :

.......
XmlText *text = XmlDoc->CreateTextNode("myValue");

XmlDoc->DocumentElement->AppendChild(Elm);

XmlDoc->DocumentElement->LastChild->AppendChild(text);

........

Great Thanks !

You can also use XmlElement.InnerText to set its value.
