Combine 2 or more XMLDocuments into one...

Hello,

I'm looking for the best option to combine two XMLDocuments into a single
document. I'm using ASP.Net using VB. I have a function that returns a
dataset in XML which works great if there is a single call of the function,
but at times I need to loop a few times and call the same function and
return its data and combine each looped data into one XMLDocument.

Thanks!!

Hi David,

If the DataSet is returned in XML format, I suggest you do the following
for combination:

1. Load the two XML into DataSets.
2. Use DataSet.Merge to combine them.
3. Use DataSet.GetXml to get the XML string.

If the XML is not in the DataSet format, I think you have to loop in one
XmlDocument and add each node to another one.
