First, format your XML file well:

    A

    B

    X

    Y

Function C#:

try
{
   using (DataSet ds = new DataSet())
   {
       ds.ReadXml("names.xml");

       DataRow dr = ds.Tables["students"].NewRow();
      dr[0] = "D";
      ds.Tables["students"].Rows.Add(dr);
      ds.AcceptChanges();

      ds.WriteXml("names.xml");
   }
}
catch(Exception rror)
{MessageBox.Show(rror.Message);}
