read CDATA section in XML with XDocument?

[viepia]

Hi,

How would I edit the code below to read XML CData text?

Thanks,
Viepia

XDocument connectedPCsXML = XDocument.Load( new
StreamReader(Re gistry.GetValue (@"HKEY_LOCAL_M ACHINE\software \myCompany\conf igDir",
"path",@"C:\Con figDir\") + "ConnectedPCs.x ml"));
var PCs = from PC in connectedPCsXML .Descendants("C onnectedPC")
select new
{
Name = PC.Element("Nam e").Value,
IP = PC.Element("IP" ).Value,
Description = PC.Element("Des cription").Valu e,
DnsName = PC.Element("Dns Name").Value
};

DnsName = PC.Element("Dns Name").Value
};

For your query with e.g. PC.Element("Des cription").Valu e it should not
make a difference whether the XML looks like e.g.
<Description>fo o &amp; bar</Description>
or
<Description> <![CDATA[foo & bar]]></Description>
the Value of the 'Description' remains the same.

If that does not help then show us the relevant XML.
