Your question is not very clear. First have a look at below link to understand "XML".

If your Component/API is returning XML output and you want to save it to some file, then have a look at below links.

First advice is: don't save any components. Make one level of indirection. Create a pure data model, store and load/restore just the data model, and use the data model to populate and be updated by anything else.

The best way to persist any data in non-intrusive and universal way, with maximum flexibility and great provision for backward compatibility is using Data Contract, see: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms733127.aspx[^].
