The following example creates two XML trees, and then uses this method to add the results of a query to one of them.
Dim output As New StringBuilder Dim srcTree As XElement = _ <Root> <Element1>1</Element1> <Element2>2</Element2> <Element3>3</Element3> <Element4>4</Element4> <Element5>5</Element5> </Root> Dim xmlTree As XElement = _ <Root> <NewElement>Content</NewElement> </Root> xmlTree.Add( _ From el In srcTree.Elements _ Where CInt(el) >= 3 _ Select el) output.Append(xmlTree) output.Append(Environment.NewLine) OutputTextBlock.Text = output.ToString()
