VB silverlight for windows phone "system.xml.linq.xelement"

Hello i am having this problem: i am downloading data from xml using linq library those data i want to add them on a textblock item

TextBlock1.Text = TextBlock1.Text & result

but it has an error :

Error 1 Operator '&' is not defined for types 'String' and 'System.Xml.Linq.XElement'.

When i am changing this line to :

TextBlock1.Text = TextBlock1.Text & result.Tostring

it works but it adds this data :

"<"data> data <"/data>

instead of :

hello

any ideas ??

You probably want result.Value:

TextBlock1.Text = TextBlock1.Text & result.Value

You can look at the MSDN Documentation for more information about XElement.Value.

On another note, you can use:

TextBlock1.Text &= result.Value

As a shorter way of writing it.
