I am getting values for a number of elements in a `.resx` file. On some of the the `data` elements the `<comment>` child element does not exist so when I run the following I will get a `NullReferenceException`.

```
foreach (var node in XDocument.Load(filePath).DescendantNodes())
{
    var element = node as XElement;

    if (element?.Name == "data")
    {
        values.Add(new ResxString
        {
            LineKey = element.Attribute("name").Value,
            LineValue = element.Value.Trim(),
            LineComment = element.Element("comment").Value  //fails here
        });
    }
}

```

I have tried the following:

```
LineComment = element.Element("comment").Value != null ? 
              element.Element("comment").Value : ""

```

And:

```
LineComment = element.Element("comment").Value == null ?
              "" : element.Element("comment").Value

```

However I am still getting an error? Any help appreciated.
