Help with XML Serialization please.

[~teh_pwn3rz~]

At work we have a set of raw XML config files (for which there is no schema available (unfortunately)).

Now, it is my task to create a class structure (heirerarchy) that is able to load and save this kind of XML file. I have gotten 80% of the way there but I can't quite figure out how to store an array of items without having the outer tag..

I don't want these 2 tags (but I can't work out how to get rid of them)...

<MyObject>
<ArrayOfThingies>
<Thingy name="A"/>
<Thingy name="B"/>
<Thingy name="C"/>
<Thingy name="D"/>
</ArrayOfThingies>
</MyObject>

I can't show you the code I'm afraid (top secret ) but if someone could give a really simple example of how to have array data inside XML without the array object tags I would be most grateful.

Many thanks.

In the past I've created a class to format the xml exacatly how I want it, before reading it into a dataset.
