    Change Value of Existing Element


    I have an xml Structure:

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-16"?>
    <Request>
    <Operations>
    <Command>
    <OpType>login </OpType>
    <Params>
    <UserName>leebo </UserName>
    <Password>leebo </Password>
    </Params>
    </Command>
    </Operations>
    </Request>

    I'm trying to find out how to change the value of an element, say
    <userName>joh n</UserName>

    I'm using an XmlDocument, but I've been searching MSDN and google
    groups for a couple of hours and I can't seem to find an answer.

    Must I create and use an XMLWriter to perform this one small function?

    Basically, I just need to change one element's value.

    Sorry for such as basic question.

      Hi,

      Yes. You must read in the document and write it back with the
      changes.

          Thanks Ken. Can you provide a link to sample? I'd really appreciate
          it.

          Thanks again,
