Hi,

Can you please tell me if the following code works for you:

START CODE

XmlDocument doc = new XmlDocument();
doc.Load("One.xml");
XPathDocument doc2 = new XPathDocument("Two.xml");
XPathNavigator nav = doc2.CreateNavigator();
foreach (XmlNode msg in doc.SelectNodes("//Message")) {
  XPathNodeIterator ni = nav.Select("/Result[MessageID='" +           
    msg.SelectSingleNode("MessageID/text()").Value +               
"']/ResultCode");
ni.MoveNext();
if (ni.Current.Value == "Error")
    msg.ParentNode.RemoveChild(msg);
}
//Resulting document
doc.Save(Console.Out);


END CODE

Thanks.

Hi,

Can you try changing the bit that says
ni.Current.Value == "Error"
to
ni.Current.Value != "Error"
or
!ni.Current.Value == "Error"

Thanks.
