Remarks

The Type property can only be set to primitive types and enumerations.

The XmlTextAttribute can also be applied to a field that returns an XmlNode or an array of XmlNode objects.

You can apply the XmlTextAttribute to a field or property that returns an array of strings. You can also apply the attribute to an array of type Object but you must set the Type property to string. In that case, any strings inserted into the array are serialized as XML text.
