    <p>I am using Linq To XML to create XML that is sent to a third party. I am having difficulty understanding how to create the XML using Linq when part of information I want to send in the XML will be dynamic.</p> <p>The dynamic part of the XML is held as a string[,] array. This multi dimensional array holds 2 values.</p> <p>I can 'build' the dynamic XML up using a stringbuilder and store the values that were in the array into a string variable but when I try to include this variable into Linq the variable is HTMLEncoded rather than included as proper XML.</p> <p>How would I go about adding in my dynamically built string to the XML being built up by Linq?</p> <p>For Example:</p> <pre><code>//string below contains values passed into my class </code></pre> <p>string[,] AccessoriesSelected;</p> <pre><code>//I loop through the above array and build up my 'Tag' and store in string called AccessoriesXML //simple linq to xml example with my AccessoriesXML value passed into it XDocument RequestDoc = new XDocument( new XElement("MainTag", new XAttribute("Innervalue", "2") ), AccessoriesXML); </code></pre> <p>'Tag' is an optional extra, it might appear in my XML multiple times or it might not - it's dependant on a user checking some checkboxes.</p> <p>Right now when I run my code I see this:</p> <pre><code>&lt;MainTag&gt; blah blah &lt;/MainTag&gt; &amp;lt ;Tag&amp;gt ;&amp;lt ;InnerTag&amp;gt ; option1="valuefromarray0" option2="valuefromarray1" /&amp;gt ;&amp;lt ;Tag/&amp;gt ; </code></pre> <p>I want to return something this:</p> <pre><code>&lt;MainTag&gt; blah blah &lt;/MainTag&gt; &lt;Tag&gt;&lt;InnerTag option1="valuefromarray0" option2="valuefromarray1" /&gt;&lt;/Tag&gt; &lt;Tag&gt;&lt;InnerTag option1="valuefromarray0" option2="valuefromarray1" /&gt;&lt;/Tag&gt; </code></pre> <p>Any thoughts or suggestions? I can get this working using XmlDocument but I would like to get this working with Linq if it is possible.</p> <p>Thanks for your help, Rich</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
