I have a simple XElement object 

XElement xml = new XElement("XML",
    new XElement ("TOKEN",Session["Token"]),
    new XElement("ALL_INCLUSIVE", "0"),
    new XElement("BEACH", "0"),
    new XElement("DEST_DEP", ddlDest.SelectedValue.ToString()),
    new XElement("FLEX", "0")
);

Where want to dump out the contents into a string. Exactly like how Console.Writeline(xml); does, but I want the contents in a string. I tried various methonds. xml.ToString(); doesn’t return anything on its own.

    ToString should most definitely work. I use it all the time. What does it return for you in this case? An empty string? My guess is that something went wrong building your XElement. To debug, rewrite the code to add each of the child XElements separately, so that you can step through your code and check on each of them. Then before you execute the .ToString, in the Locals window, look at the [xml] variable expanded to xml.

    In short, your problem is happening before you ever get to the ToString() method.
