</InventoryList>

thanks in advance for your help. I have this xml database

i want to return all products that have the ListName = "out", but this query i´m trying it´s only returning the second product, and i need it to return the first and the second product.

 var _queryItems = from c in xml.Descendants("Product")
                          where
                              c.Element("ItemLists").Element("Item").Element("ListName").Value == "out"
                          select c;

thanks :)

Right now you just check the first Item element, instead you want to check if any Item's ListName matches "out":

var _queryItems = from c in xml.Descendants("Product") 
                  where c.Element("ItemLists")
                         .Elements("Item").Any( x=> x.Element("ListName").Value == "out") 
                  select c;
