collapsing xml elements into attributes in c#
-
An xslt would be a simple way to achieve this with a well defined schema. If you're not comfortable with xslt though, you could easily do this with something like XLinq as well.

Thanks. Do you agree the following summarizes what I am trying to achieve? Unless the child element has a child element of its own, make it an attribute of the parent.

It certainly looks like it.

Hi, I have an 'in.xml' file which I would like to 'collapse' into an 'out.xml' file in c#. (Not necessarily asking for the code but the approach to do this ie. xslt or xmldocument add attributes) Many thanks in advance. The files are as follows: in.xml

I disagree. I feel his post was the most usefull of all, instructing you to increase your skillset. This would have the effect of you being able to solve this particular problem in a far more efficient method than posting a question in a discussion forum. :-D

Actually, I assumed he was already at least somewhat familiar with XSLT; he seems to know what it is and that it is applicable to the situation. I think what I meant to imply was that he should maybe become more confortable with XSLT. Oh, and OP: we do have an XML/XSLT forum if you need assistance group therapy.

I was just joking around. Either way, it wouldn't hurt to increase his skillset anyway.
