Read attribute of XML using LINQ or XPATH

Question

Hello,

My XML is pretty comples and has attributes assigned to almost all elements of the xml.

I want to be able to read the attributes of the elements.

I am thinking using LINQ to XML will be a good approach, but need help/samples on that.

Any sample using XPATH will also work.
