i need save xml file sql database. because have submit xml file our customer reference.

what method should use in order achieve goal? can use xml serialization , deserialization?

i design web method accept string of xml text. can use string directly in sql insert command.

public string uploadxml(string xmlstring) {   using (var connection = new sqlconnection(myconnectionstring)) {     using (var command = connection.createcommand()) {       command.commandtext = "insert mytable (xmlcolumn) values (@xmltext)";       command.parameters.addwithvalue("@xmltext", xmlstring);       // etc.     }   } }
