dotnet xml:

I have the following XML..

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

<EMS>

<Scene>

<Number_of_Patients>1212</Number_of_Patients>

<MCI code_description_type="description">

<Code>Stri</Code>

</MCI>

<Location_Type code_description_type="description">

<Code>Stri</Code>

</Location_Type>

<Service_Type code_description_type="description">

<Code>Stri</Code>

</Service_Type>

</Scene>

</EMS>


using the following Xpath expression ...
//*[@code_description_type='description']//Code

How can I iterate through using C# and change "Stri" to "ABC" ?

When I run this I get an exception "Data at the root level is invalid".
Any suggestions?

doc.SelectNodes("//*[@code_description_type='description']//Code[.='Stri']")
;

Thanks the code runs.

I noticed though that my file has not been changed.

Should I be using XmlWriter ?

XmlDocument doc = new XmlDocument();
//Load XML
doc.LoadXml(xml);
XmlNodeList list =
doc.SelectNodes("//*[@code_description_type='description']//Code[.='Stri']");
foreach (XmlNode node in list)
node.FirstChild.Value = "ABC";

Most likely you are trying to load XML by URL using LoadXML method. My
mistake, I just tested it loading your XML as string. Use ordinar Load
method instead.

Sure, you have to save modified document using Save method, e.g.
doc.Save("foo.xml");
