VB .NET XML Parsing String

I'm trying to bind a method that returns a xml string to a XML Document, but I get the following error
"XML axis properties do not support late binding".  The GetXML method retrieves a xml string from a website, what is the proper way to do this?
Dim doc = XDocument.Load(GetXML())

Dim query = _
           From c In doc.<tm>.<ts> _
           Select c.@id
        
For Each result In query
idList.Add(result)
Next

Did you try changing this line in your code:

Dim doc = XDocument.Load(GetXML())

to this, which explicitly defines doc as a XDocument :

Dim doc As XDocument = XDocument.Load(GetXML())
