Examples

The following code example uses the PreviousSibling and NextSibling properties to display the names of the elements before and after an XMLNode control. This example assumes that the current document contains an XMLNode named CustomerFirstNameNode.

private void DisplaySiblings()
{
    // Display the previous sibling, if one exists.
    if (this.CustomerFirstNameNode.PreviousSibling != null)
    {
        MessageBox.Show("The previous sibling of '" +
            this.CustomerFirstNameNode.BaseName + "' is  '" +
            this.CustomerFirstNameNode.PreviousSibling.BaseName +
            "'.");
    }
    else
    {
        MessageBox.Show("'" + this.CustomerFirstNameNode.BaseName +
            "' is the first node in its hierarchy.");
    }

    // Display the next sibling, if one exists.
    if (this.CustomerFirstNameNode.NextSibling != null)
    {

        MessageBox.Show("The next sibling of '" +
            this.CustomerFirstNameNode.BaseName + "' is '" +
            this.CustomerFirstNameNode.NextSibling.BaseName +
            "'.");
    }
    else
    {
        MessageBox.Show("'" + this.CustomerFirstNameNode.BaseName +
            "' is the last node in its hierarchy.");
    }
}
Private Sub DisplaySiblings()

    ' Display the previous sibling, if one exists.
    If Not (Me.CustomerFirstNameNode.PreviousSibling Is Nothing) Then
        MsgBox("The previous sibling of '" & _
            Me.CustomerFirstNameNode.BaseName & "' is  '" & _
            Me.CustomerFirstNameNode.PreviousSibling.BaseName & "'.")
    Else
        MsgBox("'" & Me.CustomerFirstNameNode.BaseName & _
            "' is the first node in its hierarchy.")
    End If

    ' Display the next sibling, if one exists.
    If Not (Me.CustomerFirstNameNode.NextSibling Is Nothing) Then

        MsgBox("The next sibling of '" & _
            Me.CustomerFirstNameNode.BaseName & "' is '" & _
            Me.CustomerFirstNameNode.NextSibling.BaseName & "'.")
    Else
        MsgBox("'" & Me.CustomerFirstNameNode.BaseName & _
            "' is the last node in its hierarchy.")
    End If
End Sub

Remarks

If the current Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.XMLNode is the first element in the Microsoft.Office.Interop.Word.XMLNodes collection, this property returns null.
