Hi, I have a scenario as follows... can someone guide me a suitable solution?

1) I retrieve an XML string from database.

2) I need to modify an XmlNode attribute at runtime based on user input.

3) I need to to pass the updated XML string to code downstream.


Currently I am retirveing the XML structure and able to modify the node attribute by using the code as below.

XmlDocument xmldoc = new XmlDocument();
xmldoc.LoadXml (<xml structure>);
xmlDoc.DocumentElement.SetAttribute("attributename","user input");

Then I am not sure how to pass this updated XML string to code downstream.

Is there a way to do this without saving the XMLDocument?

Or

Is there a better way to manipulate the XML string and get handle to the XML string to use for further processing?

Please help.

Use xmlDoc.WriteTo() method.
