LINQ to XML Question

[stoogots2]

I have the following XML structure from which I want to select/remove the "second" Element which has the Attribute "Name" whose value = "Test"

<Application>
<first>
<second Name="Test">
</second>
<second Name="Whatever">
</second>
</first>
</Application>

var x = from c in xd.Element("Application").Element("first").Descendants()
           where c.Element("Application").Element("first").Element("second").Attribute("Name").Value=="Test"
select c;

Anyway what I have above does not work, and I've tried a lot of different things to no avail. There is something important that I seem to be missing about LINQ to XML. I read that I should be able to use Descendants() anywhere (without having to specify the hierarchy in element.element type syntax), but I haven't gotten that to work with a where clause or condition.

Resolved. Not sure why this didn't work the first time...

Here is the code to find the matching elements / remove them / and save the xml file.

XDocument xd = XDocument.Load(sXmlFile);
                var x = from c in xd.Descendants("second")
                        where c.Attribute("Name").Value == "Test"
                        select c;

// To remove all matching elements
x.Remove();

// To Save after finished
xd.Save(sXmlFile);
