title: xmlTextReader.ReadInnerXml() is pulling in my entire XML doc into one variable
body: <p>I am creating XML index files to be read in a later step. I have variable length arrays, and I am writing them to one file.</p>
  
  <p>There is a problem, I think its inside the reader code. For some reason the TimeStamp and Long elements are read into arrays properly, but the Lat and VideoFile elements are skipped. For some reason, thier reader.nodetype is never returned. The only way the read() method picks them up is in a TEXT nodetype, and then it only shows the innerxml value, which is useless to me.</p>
  
  <p>The code below should be fully runnable once you save an example of the XML file.</p>
  
  <p>Once again, thank-you stack users.</p>
