static void LoopThroughXMLNodes()
        {
            string returnValue = String.Empty;
            XDocument xDoc = XDocument.Parse(
                @"<Employees>
                      <Employee>
                        <ID>0001</ID>
                        <Surname>Harry</Surname>
                        <Forename>L</Forename>
                      </Employee>
                      <Employee>
                        <ID>0002</ID>
                        <Surname>Harry</Surname>
                        <Forename>L</Forename>
                      </Employee>
                    </Employees>");

if (xDoc != null)
                    {    
                        foreach (XNode xNode in xDoc.Descendants())
                        {
                            foreach (XElement xElement in xNode.Ancestors().Ancestors())
                            {
                                Console.WriteLine(xNode.ToString());                                
                            }
                        }
                        Console.ReadLine();
