Dim output As New StringBuilder
Dim srcTree As XElement = _
        <Root>
            <Element1>1</Element1>
            <Element2>2</Element2>
            <Element3>3</Element3>
            <Element4>4</Element4>
            <Element5>5</Element5>
        </Root>

Dim xmlTree As XElement = _
        <Root>
            <Child1>1</Child1>
            <Child2>2</Child2>
            <Child3>3</Child3>
            <Child4>4</Child4>
            <Child5>5</Child5>
        </Root>

xmlTree.AddFirst(New XElement("NewChild", "new content"))
xmlTree.AddFirst( _
    From el In srcTree.Elements() _
    Where CInt(el) > 3 _
    Select el _
)
' Even though Child9 does not exist in srcTree, the following statement will not
' throw an exception, and nothing will be added to xmlTree
xmlTree.AddFirst(srcTree.<Child9>)
output.Append(xmlTree)
output.Append(Environment.NewLine)

OutputTextBlock.Text = output.ToString()

StringBuilder output = new StringBuilder();
XElement srcTree = new XElement("Root",
    new XElement("Element1", 1),
    new XElement("Element2", 2),
    new XElement("Element3", 3),
    new XElement("Element4", 4),
    new XElement("Element5", 5)
);
XElement xmlTree = new XElement("Root",
    new XElement("Child1", 1),
    new XElement("Child2", 2),
    new XElement("Child3", 3),
    new XElement("Child4", 4),
    new XElement("Child5", 5)
);
xmlTree.AddFirst(new XElement("NewChild", "new content"));
xmlTree.AddFirst(
    from el in srcTree.Elements()
    where (int)el > 3
    select el
);
// Even though Child9 does not exist in srcTree, the following statement will not
// throw an exception, and nothing will be added to xmlTree
xmlTree.AddFirst(srcTree.Element("Child9"));
output.Append(xmlTree  + Environment.NewLine);

OutputTextBlock.Text = output.ToString();
