hey man, here is a sample code: public static void Main() { XmlDocument doc = new XmlDocument(); doc.LoadXml(" " + " Pride And Prejudice " + " "); //Create a comment. XmlComment newComment; newComment = doc.CreateComment("Sample XML document"); //Add the new node to the document. XmlElement root = doc.DocumentElement; doc.InsertBefore(newComment, root); Console.WriteLine("Display the modified XML..."); doc.Save(Console.Out); }

Thanks for your help, but it is not working Few changes should be done. XmlNode node = doc.CreateNode(XmlNodeType.Comment, "Comments", ""); And this part is not has a problem XmlNode dummy = doc.InsertBefore(doc.GetElementsByTagName("Main","")[0], node); The reference node is not a child of this node.
