How to sort an XMl file node base on its ID using C#.

I know how to edit attributes of an element in XML file.

But how to sort the whole XML file by its ID.

Is there any way to do so.

Solution 1

XmlDocument myXmlDoc = new XmlDocument();

myXMLNode = myXmlDoc.SelectSingleNode("record/Page1");
page1 is the node,
record is the root,

you enter your own root and node to sort

string Cubs_Account_Number = myXMLNode["CUBS_Account_Number"].InnerText;

you can sort like that

Sample xml file::

C#

<record>
<page1>

<cubs_account_number>123456789</cubs_account_number>
</page1>

</record>

Solution 2

XML

<Root a="1">
   <I aa="1" b="2">
   <I aa=5" b="2">
   <I aa="3" b="2">
   <I aa="4" b="2">
</Root>


var xml= xDoc.Element(&quot;Root&quot;)
                .Elements(&quot;I&quot;)
                .OrderByDescending(s =&gt; (int) s.Attribute(&quot;aa&quot;));
