adding an element to XML

dotnet xml:

I am getting data from a database in XML format. It looks like this

<NewDataSet><Table1></Table1><Table2></Table2></NewDataSet

Each time I update the XML it does so like this

<NewDataSet><Table1></Table1><Table2></Table2><Table1></Table1><Table2></Table2></NewDataSet

I would like it to reform the XML data with a schema. I would like the data to look like this

<NewDataSet><Query><Table1></Table1><Table2></Table2></Query><Query><Table1></Table1><Table2></Table2></Query></NewDataSet

Can you say more about how you are getting this data from the database?
Can you also say more about how you update the XML?
What APIs. What database? How is the XML generated? Is it a string? Is
it an XmlDocument ?
etc
To answer your question, "Is it possible to reform the xML?" yes, it is.
One way to do it is via xslt. Check the archives for examples. This may
not be what you want though.
