New Visual Basic LINQ to XML Videos Released!

Published 01 November 07 03:00 PM

We just released a new set of How-Do-I videos in our LINQ series on LINQ to XML in Visual Basic. These 4 new videos will help get you up to speed on using this new language feature in Visual Basic 2008. They walk you through the basics of LINQ to XML, creating, querying and transforming documents as well as how to import XML namespaces and infer schemas to enable IntelliSense. In the end I demonstrate how to create an Excel spreadsheet like I did in this post. In addition to the videos, check out these blog posts to help you get started:

And don't forget you can also subscribe to the How-Do-I Video RSS feed as well!

Enjoy!

Whoa.  Big formatting problem in your post, the links are g-i-g-a-n-t-i-c.

They came through on RSS just fine, though :)

Keep up the great work!
