Create A Class representing your xml. You can generate class using xsd.exe it comes with VS. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/x6c1kb0s(v=vs.80).aspx[^]

The very normal location of xsd.exe is:

SQL

C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v6.0A\bin
C:\Program Files\Microsoft SDKs\Windows\v7.0A\bin

You can also use xsdobjectgenerator for more accurate results:
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=7075[^]

Once your class is created, you can use it serialize/deserialize your xml

C#

public void CreateXML(Object oObject)
{
  XmlDocument xmlDoc = new XmlDocument();
  XmlSerializer xmlSerializer = new XmlSerializer(oObject.GetType());
  using (Stream xmlStream = new FileStream("Yourpathtoxmlfile", System.IO.FileMode.OpenOrCreate))
  {
    xmlSerializer.Serialize(xmlStream, oObject);
    xmlStream.Close();

  }
}

An example on serialization:
