Does anyone know how to do the following via c# managed code? I wish to
remove the attribute in the similar way in c# because I get the error:
'#PCDATA' is in nil content.

    // Receive a reference to the element to be filled.
    var objDataElement =
XDocument.DOM.selectSingleNode("/my:myFields/my:field1");

    //Determine whether the xsi:nil attribute is set for this
    //element. If so, remove the xsi:nil attributes so that
    //the value can be set.
    if (objDataElement.getAttribute("xsi:nil"))
objDataElement.removeAttribute("xsi:nil");

    //Set the value of the element.
    objDataElement.text = "10.0";

Microsoft have the following script example here:

ok looks like I have solved this one myself.

simply do:

IXMLDOMNode xmlDOMPrice =
thisXDocument.DOM.selectSingleNode("/my:Company/my:CostsGroup/my:Price");
xmlDOMPrice.attributes.removeNamedItem("xsi:nil");

easy!
