OK. I can have a Look on IT at afternoon. Please ensure that i will find the XML in its latest Version in the Posts. IT would be great If you can confirm following. In the Excel File i do find 2 columns: 1 with the information to element, Second with the new value, right?

Yes @ppr in Excel one column is element and other column with value

Perfect, thanks

@tejach412
As the elements, which are to update, are unique, so the flow is less complex
Base Pattern is like this (not showing explicitly read in excel, parsing XML)

  • iterating over each row
  • selecting XML Element
  • updating XML Element
    finally save XML Document

I show cased this for you with two approaches:

  • LINQ to XML API: xDoc.Descendants(row(“ElementName”).ToString.Trim).Single
  • XPATH Statement: xDoc.XPathSelectElements(row(“ElementName”).ToString.Trim).Single

So decide by yourself on what you prefer.
Kindly Note:

  • the Single Method is raising an exception of less or more XMLelements were retrieved. You can use it for initial retrieval error handling
  • Using XPathSelectElements method requires the imported Namespace: System.XML.XPath
