XmlSerializer help

Hi,
I have a class:
public class Note
{
public string name;
public string information;
}

And i Serialize this class, but want to Serialize it to an XmlDocument which
will contain many of these elements.

How do i do this?

Thank you,

Tim.

Timothy,

take a look at Chris Lovett's XmlNodeWriter on www.gotdotnet.com [0].

Simply pass the node where you want to insert the serialized XML into the
XmlDocument to an XmlNodeWriter and pass the XmlNodeWriter to the Serialize
method.

Thanks! That works. However, is there any other way to do it? (ie not use
XmlNodeWriter)

Thanks,

Tim.

Nothing that's equally elegant ... and if you want the result to be in an
XmlDocument then it's the way to go.

If you just need a string or a stream, then you can serialize to a
StreamWriter or an XmlTextWriter.
