Using XMLTextWriter to output to stream and then a file

[MarkGreen]

Hello

Beginners question! I need some help regarding writing XML to a file using C#

I am currently outputting my XML to a file directly using

KeywordsDataXML = new XmlTextWriter(keywordCacheLocationFile, Encoding.UTF8);

This working fine, however I now need to examine the results of each node before I output them to the file. So I thought I would output to a memory stream first using

XmlTextWriter tempKeywordsDataXML = null; //MG
MemoryStream ms = new MemoryStream(); //MG
tempKeywordsDataXML = new XmlTextWriter(ms, Encoding.UTF8);

However I am now having problems transferring the contents of the memorystream (tempKeywordsDataXML) to the file (KeywordsDataXML)

Sorry to be posting quite a basic question but I'm new to this - any help is appreciated.

Thanks.
