Insert a Document Fragment into a Node

Question

NOTE: Sorry about the formatting - I corrected it below.

I've seen several threads in the forum that were similar to this problem, but none where I was able to glean specifically what I'm trying to do.

I am attempting insert data into an XML document at a specific point.

Here is an example XML document

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
<Month>
  <Day id="6">
    <Number id="1">
      <Comment>Some text</Comment>
      <Comment>Some text</Comment>
    </Number>
  </Day>
  <Day id="15">
    <Number id="1">
      <Comment>Some text</Comment>
      <Comment>Some text</Comment>
    </Number>
    <Number id="2">
      <Comment>Some text</Comment>
    </Number>
  </Day>
  <Day id="18">
    <Number id="1">
      <Comment>Some text</Comment>
    </Number>
  </Day>
</Month>

Now, suppose I want to insert another <Comment> in the <Day id=15><Number id=2> node. How do I do that?

U can do it as following.. I have stored ur xml string in the XmlFIle9 here...

string fileName = Server.MapPath("XMLFile9.xml");
        XmlDocument xDoc = new XmlDocument();
        xDoc.Load(fileName);

        XmlNode xComment = xDoc.CreateNode(XmlNodeType.Element, "Comment", "");
        xComment.InnerText = "This is the new comment";

        XmlNode xNodeSelect = xDoc.SelectSingleNode("Month/Day[@id = 15]/Number[@id = 2]");
        xNodeSelect.AppendChild(xComment);

        string seeString = xDoc.DocumentElement.OuterXml;
