Using XML elements

Question

I have working code that I\'d simply like to reference parts of multiple times in other area\'s of my program, however my problem seems to be with anonymous types (var)

Answer 1

the XML is needing to be referenced in multiple parts of the program,

But all your variables are local. You need to store something in a Form fiead or property.

// outside any method:
private List<string> names = new List<string>();

void myLoadMethod()
{
    ...
    foreach(var HandlingName in query)
    {
        //string Names = HandlingName.HandlingName;
        Names.Add(HandlingName.HandlingName);
    }  
}

private void button1_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
    comboBox1.Items.Add( Names);
}
