On this question: Create a XML File from a list based on a conditional I solved the problem i was having and saw a simple use of Xml.Serialization.
Running the program now writes the XML i expect - but it writes all data in all files. i.e: file1 should have color = #FF9032 colorname = WhoKnows file 2 should have color = #FE9034 colorname = SomeoneKnows
When the program runs he writes into file1 information from file2 also. Basically if i have 8 files to be processed, he'll write every information (color and colorname) from the 8 files on the 8 files.
Where this behaviour came from and how can i fix it ?
Any help is kindly appreciated. Thanks.

EDIT: Code Added - Everything on classes now
EDIT2: Since the attributes were fixed i defined them on the classes.
