As "fiver" had mentioned you could use the XmlDocument or the new simplified version XDocument for creating XML Documents. Here's a sample code snippet from MSDN for creating XML documents and writing to a file.

XDocument doc = new XDocument(
    new XElement("Root",
        new XElement("Child", "content")
    )
);
doc.Save("Root.xml");

This will write the following text to the xml file

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<Root>
  <Child>content</Child>
</Root>

Note: XDocument is supported only on .NET framework 3.5 and above
