I assume you man the specific XmlDocument object as defined in http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.xml.xmldocument%28v=vs.110%29.aspx[^]

This object support LoadXml method and solution 2 hints that very briefly.

(Consider using XDocument instead.)
When you read an XML column in dot net, it becomes a XmlType http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.data.sqltypes.sqlxml%28v=vs.110%29.aspx[^]

This is ultimately an XmlReader object which you could manipulate like this:

XML

static void Main(string[] args)
        {
            using (var mem = new MemoryStream())
            {
                /* Simulates your XmlType data field */
                var writer = new StreamWriter(mem);
                var xml = "<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-8\" ?><root><data>chicks</data></root>";
                writer.Write(xml);
                writer.Flush();
                mem.Position = 0;
                XmlReader rdr = XmlReader.Create(mem);

                /*Example of manimuplating data*/
                var xdoc = XDocument.Load(rdr);
                IEnumerable<XElement> found = xdoc.Root.Elements("data");
                Console.WriteLine("my data was: " + found.First().Value);
                Console.ReadKey();

            }
        }
