Hi friend,

I tried this but i am getting an error (Error: 'XDocument' does not contain a definition for 'Dump' and no extension method 'Dump' accepting a first argument of type 'XDocument'could be found ) on masterfile.Dump();
Can anyone help regarding this error ???

This .Dump() is an extension method provided there.
It can be discarded elsewhere.
