    <p>I have xml files with following to generate the menu for our web site.</p> <pre><code> &lt;xs:element name="Menu"&gt; &lt;xs:complexType&gt; &lt;xs:sequence&gt; &lt;xs:element name="MenuItem" type="MenuItemType" maxOccurs="unbounded"&gt;&lt;/xs:element&gt; &lt;/xs:sequence&gt; &lt;xs:attribute name="Title" type="xs:string"&gt;&lt;/xs:attribute&gt; &lt;xs:attribute name="Type" type="xs:string"&gt;&lt;/xs:attribute&gt; &lt;/xs:complexType&gt; &lt;/xs:element&gt; &lt;xs:complexType name="MenuItemType"&gt; &lt;xs:choice minOccurs="0" maxOccurs="unbounded"&gt; &lt;xs:element name="MenuItem" type="MenuItemType" /&gt; &lt;/xs:choice&gt; &lt;xs:attribute name="Text" type="xs:string"&gt;&lt;/xs:attribute&gt; &lt;xs:attribute name="Url" type="xs:string"&gt;&lt;/xs:attribute&gt; &lt;/xs:complexType&gt; </code></pre> <p>Right now I am using xmlserializer to convert these xml files in to Menu objects and use them to generate the menu. I want to use LINQ to xml to convert these xml files in to same object. Any help will be appreciated. Generated class for above xml file is</p> <pre><code> public partial class Menu { /// &lt;remarks/&gt; [System.Xml.Serialization.XmlElementAttribute("MenuItem")] public MenuItemType[] MenuItem; /// &lt;remarks/&gt; [System.Xml.Serialization.XmlAttributeAttribute()] public string Title; /// &lt;remarks/&gt; [System.Xml.Serialization.XmlAttributeAttribute()] public string Type; } public partial class MenuItemType { /// &lt;remarks/&gt; [System.Xml.Serialization.XmlElementAttribute("MenuItem")] public MenuItemType[] Items; /// &lt;remarks/&gt; [System.Xml.Serialization.XmlAttributeAttribute()] public string Text; /// &lt;remarks/&gt; [System.Xml.Serialization.XmlAttributeAttribute()] public string Url; } </code></pre>

    1. COThis would be easier if we could see the actual XML for a menu as opposed to the schema definition for same.

    2. COwhy would you want to use Linq-to-XML instead of deserializing them directly? Deserializing an XML into an object seems like the much easier and preferable way to do this....

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.
