If you don't need to create the whole Xml file from scratch and could add a stubb file to your project you could use the XmlPoke Task to update this file in the BeforeBuild Target (see Sergios answer).
You can use builtin in your . Csproj/. Vbproj file target BeforeBuild (not forget to uncomment it) and call required MSBuild task in BeforeTarget.
In that project add that resource as embedded. That's all.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
