Remarks
A key property of the XDocument object, the DOM property allows you to programmatically access and manipulate the source XML of a form. After you have set a reference to the XML DOM, which contains the source XML data of a form, you can use any of the properties and methods that are supported by the XML DOM.
Examples
// retrieve the Employees Adapter from the DataAdapters collection
ADOAdapter employeesDA=(ADOAdapter)thisXDocument.DataAdapters["Employees"];
// get employee’s ID from the main DOM
string employeeID=thisXDocument.DOM.selectSingleNode("//my:field2").text;
// Change the ADOAdapter’s command to retrieve the record of the Employee’s ID entered
// by the user
employeesDA.Command="select * from Employees where EmployeeID="+employeeID;
// get DataObject from the DataObjects collection and call Query to refresh
// the data object
DataObject employeesDO=thisXDocument.DataObjects["Employees"];
employeesDO.Query();
