Yonas did an excellent job explaining where I was making errors in my code. I was having trouble accessing the value of an element from an XML file and Yonas was able to help me identify the issue and fix the problem. I definitely feel more confident in using LINQ to manipulate xml files after my session with Yonas. Will be contacting him again in the future when I'm stuck.
