Adding a XML Attribute for an Exiting Node

[Peter]

Hi,
If I use the following code, there is a attribute.
XmlDocument doc = new XmlDocument();
doc.LoadXml("<i tem id='301'>Pink Ale Beer</item>");

If I code the 2nd line as below:
doc.LoadXml("<i tem>Pink Ale Beer</item>");
My question is how to add the attribute after that.
Please advice. Thanks.
Peter

Sample
static void Main(string[] args)
{
System.Xml.XmlD ocument doc = new System.Xml.XmlD ocument();
doc.LoadXml("<i tem>Pink Ale Beer</item>");
doc.DocumentEle ment.SetAttribu te("id", "301");
System.Console. WriteLine(doc.D ocumentElement. OuterXml);
}

Hope this helps,

Randy
