I am using an XmlDocument to save an data object hirachy to an Xml file. When
I rebuild the data object hirachy, I walk through the xml node in XmlDocument
and recreate the objects. How do I know the original data types for each
node. Can XmlDocument associates with a schema so that I can look up for the
original data type of an xml node (element)?

XmlDocument has a property call XmlSchemaSet. Along with the data you should
also save the schema in the XML file.

Assuming I know the name of a element/attribute, how do I get the data types
for the element/attribute from XmlSchemaSet?

Have you thought about simply serializing the classes as XML?

Simple serialization contains too much information I don't need. Besides, I
am using Dictionary classes which is not capable of serialization.
