In this presentation you will learn about the new powerful and easy-to-use LINQ to XML functionality in the .NET Framework 3.5. LINQ to XML makes it easy to load, query, and manipulate XML from disk, in-code, or memory without using XmlReader or XmlWriter and the Document Object Model (DOM) approach. Learn how LINQ querying on top of XML provides an extremely robust way to manipulate XML in member. See the new XML literals in VB.NET for easily embedding XML in your code, and considerations on when to use it. Also, learn how XML namespaces are now easy to use. Finally, see how inserting, editing, and deleting XML elements and attributes is now a simple task.
