Getting all contents from XMLReader into string?

[SamIAm]

Is there a way to do this without looping through all the nodes using read()

I need to return the contents of the reader as a string

Thanks

Re: Getting all contents from XMLReader into string?

You can try something like

StreamReader sr = new StreamReader(s) ;
transForm.Load( new XmlTextReader(n ew StringReader(sr .ReadToEnd()))) ;

Thats just a snippted to load in an .xsl file but you can use the same
approach. Use .ReadToEnd() and pass that to your string to hold the data.

XmlDocument.Loa d simply loads in the entire XML file into memory which
then you can convert .ToString() as well.
