Manipulating XML with LinQ

Hi everybody,

I need some help regarding inserting node on an xml.

I have a xml tree and I want to insert data on a specific location on the tree.

Joining an example. How do I do, if I want to insert a node between Hierarchy with ID_Hierarchy="5" and Hierarchy ID_Hierarchy="6".

      4
      true
      true
      <Hierarchy ID_Hierarchy="5" ID_Level="3">
        555
        3
        0
        6
        false
        true

      <Hierarchy ID_Hierarchy="6" ID_Level="3">
        666
        3
        5
        0
        false
        true

      0
      false
      true


The best solution I can think is to reconstruct the entire node but maybee is there a better solution.

Thanks for the assistance.

If when the data is accessed it is sorted by ID_Hierarchy then it does not matter what order the data is in when it is stored. If however you need to store the data in a specified order anywhay, then the XmlNode.InsertAfter Method should work.

Thanks but XMLNode.InsertAfter is not Linq.

However, with your idea, I found about the same method with LinQ : XNode.AddAfterSelf().
