Read XML file into XmlDocument

Question

I am very new to C#. I have XML file (text.xml). I want to read that in XmlDocument and store the stream in string variable.

Answer 1

Hope you dont mind Xml.Linq and .net3.5+

XElement ele = XElement.Load("text.xml");
String aXmlString = ele.toString(SaveOptions.DisableFormatting);

Depending on what you are interested in, you can probably skip the whole 'string' var part and just use XLinq objects
