Hi Martin,

One step closer it appears. But aren't you still using a File for the
translated XML? e.g. "result.html"

Can't I get it back in a String?

Thanks

Thanks Martin.

With your example, I was able to get my base understanding of readers/writers.

Here is what worked for me.

StringWriter sw = new StringWriter();
xslt.Load("MyXSLfile.xslt");
xslt.Transform(XmlDoc.CreateNavigator(), null, sw);
// now sw.ToString() has the contents of the translated XML

There are several overloads of the Transform method that take an
IXPathNavigable as the first argument, for instance this one:
<http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ateytk4a.aspx>
So you can call
xslCompiledTransformInstance(xmlDocumentInstance.CreateNavigator(), ...)
for those methods.

Then there are overloads taking an XmlReader as the first argument so
you can pass in an XmlNodeReader over your XmlDocument
xslCompiledTransformInstance(New XmlNodeReader(xmlDocumentInstance), ...)

Here is an example creating an IXPathNavigable using CreateNavigator,
assuming you have an XmlDocument variable named yourXmlDocumentInstance:

Dim xsltProcessor As New XslCompiledTransform()
xsltProcessor.Load("sheet.xslt")
xsltProcessor.Transform(_
yourXmlDocumentInstance.CreateNavigator(), _
Nothing, _
File.Open("result.html", FileMode.Create))

I posted the wrong link somehow, the link to the method overload should be
<http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms163434.aspx>
