I have a two xml file and want to merge into single xml file. The merged file should not have common nodes and if some node's ID matched but they have different characteristic then we have sum up there characteristics into merged xml file. Please provide me the source code for C# .net project.Keep in mind thatwe can have 2000 files for merging.
Follow these steps:
Parse each file into an XDocument
Apply your merge algorithm to the two XDocuments and produce a third, merged XDocument
Write the resulting XDocument to a xml file.
Voilà, job finished.

At work, we're modifying an XLSX file, and we would like to turn this modified file into an HTML file (to convert it into PDF using Puppeteer#, but it's not the point here).
We know how to get XML files of this XLSX, and I already found XSLCompiledTransform to convert XML files to HTML.
The annoyance here is that, from what I have read for XSLCompiledTransform, to transform XML file to HTML you need one stylesheet + one XML file.
This brings three problems :
It looks like the stylesheet into XLSX for each sheet isn't well formated to use with this XSLCompiledTransform.
The XLSX file contains multiples sheets, so we would have to fuse them in some manner, and we don't know how.
It is not just some random XML files, they're parts of an XLSX file. Thus there are also some XML files in addition to the sheets (like a workbook and other files) and we can't figure how we could generate an HTML file which is precisely like the XLSX file as open using Excel without using these XML files.
These problems could be resumed as: We struggle to find how to generate an HTML file which will look exactly like the original whole XLSX file.
We don't really want to create an HTML file from some XML files, so any means to transform an XLSX to HTML is good.
We also know that there are some tools and libs available to directly do this, but all the ones I've found aren't free, and we would like to avoid to pay for that as it's the first time we need it and maybe the last.
Does anyone know an accurate option to programmatically transform an XLSX file to HTML, keeping every style options and using C#?
I need to validate CSV files in a .NET project. XPATH is used to navigate XML files. We are already using XPATH to validate xml files. Can we navigate a csv file using XPATH to carry out validation ?
You already answered your own question:
XPath is used to navigate XML files.
so: No.
No, you can't XPath works for XML based data only.
You might generate an XML file from your CSV file and validate it, then:

I need to read, modify and then write from/to an xml file in a zip I need to do this for lots if files as the xml is kind of an index for what the zip is for.
Saxon 9.5 implements the EXPath ZIP file extensions: take a look, it might do what you need.
Hello i'm facing problem trying to parse a XPS printed file. I have a interleaving printed XPS file, and i want to parse this XML files, but the output is coming in pieces. i.e i have a [0].piece [1].piece [2].piece and [3].last.piece files and all them together represent the xml that i need to parse. do you guys have any idea what can i do to join all this files and transform them to a valid XML in order to be read it using .Net C#.
Thanks in advance
Use XDoc to read each file, then Linq To XML to select all of the elements you want.
XDocument reference
EDIT: For the stream idea I put in my reply to your comment, this came up:
Stitching together multiple streams in one Stream class
My C#/.NET application reads XML files that are manually edited by the users. The allowed elements and tags are described in the application's documentation. I'm using LINQ to extract data from the XML file.
Before extracting data from the XML file, I'd like to validate it to see if it has the expected structure. If not, it would be nice to have information about what is wrong so that I can give some feeback to the user.
What's the simplest way to do this in C#?
You can validate xml files against XSD.
First you have to create Xml Schema Definition file. See example
use XML Schema Definition Tool to create XSD from XMLfile
Use this code to validate input XML using corresponding XSD
Hope this will help...
EDIT
This article explains all possible ways to validate xml, using C#
How To Validate an XML Document by Using DTD, XDR, or XSD in Visual C# .NET
IMO best option is to use XSD.
