Cool! Both works!

But i want to have a follow up question,

If I want to modify one of the item, say, Winter only,

How could I access this specified item?

The below is what i use after converting to VB

Dim xele As XElement = XElement.Load(MapPath("~\xml\course_desc.xml"))

        Dim xitems = (From x In xele.Descendants("showschedule").Descendants() _
                     Select New With { _
                            .Sqlname = x.Attribute("sqlname").Value, _
                            .Sqlshow = x.Attribute("show").Value, _
                            .Index = x.Attribute("index").Value, _
                            .Name = x.Attribute("name").Value _
                      }).OrderBy(Function(x) x.Index).ToList()
