Do you want to know how to do it in XLINQ or "classic" XML mode in .NET? The example really depends on which you'll be comfortable with.

How on Earth using XML can be related to WPF? You certainly have a problem with separation of concerns.

You can work on several different levels. Here is the short overview:

Use System.Xml.XmlDocument class. It implements DOM interface; this way is the easiest and good enough if the size if the document is not too big.
See http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.xml.xmldocument.aspx[^].
Use the classes System.Xml.XmlReader and System.Xml.XmlWriter; this is the fastest way of reading, especially is you need to skip some data.
See http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.xml.xmlreader.aspx[^].
Use the class System.Xml.Linq.XDocument; this is the most adequate way similar to that of XmlDocument, supporting LINQ to XML Programming.
See http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.xml.xmldocument.aspx[^], http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb387063.aspx[^].

Besides, you many want not to use XML manually at all but use serialization of Data Contract instead. I strongly recommend using Data Contract.

See http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms733127.aspx[^].

See also my past answer where I advocate using this powerful and non-intrusive approach:
