I think you want do something like this....
Dim doc As XElement = <XML> <Header> <From> <Credential domain="Name"> <Identity>Hello Australia Limited</Identity> </Credential> <Credential domain="N"> <Identity>320</Identity> </Credential> <Credential domain="BranchID"> <Identity>6043</Identity> </Credential> <Credential domain="BranchName"> <Identity>CENTRE</Identity> </Credential> <Credential domain="BranchEmail"> <Identity>[email protected]</Identity> </Credential> </From> </Header> </XML> Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System. EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click Dim result As String = (From c In doc...<Credential> Where c.Attribute( "domain").Value = "BranchID" Select c.<Identity>.Value).FirstOrDefault() MsgBox(result) End Sub On Fri, Nov 12, 2010 at 4:59 PM, Anthony <[email protected]> wrote: > > How do i use linq to select an elementbased on an attribute in a repeating section? > > This works Linq.XElement.Parse(sXML).<Header>.<From>.<Credential[3]>.Identity but assumes its the 3rd one!
