Use an XmlReader with XmlReaderSettin gs set up for validation:

XmlReaderSettin gs settings = new XmlReaderSettin gs();
settings.Valida tionType = ValidationType. Schema;
settings.Schema s.Add(null, "schema.xsd ");
bool valid = true;
settings.Valida tionEventHandle r += delegate(object sender,
ValidationEvent Args vargs)
{
if (vargs.Severity == XmlSeverityType .Error)
{
valid = false;
}
Console.WriteLi ne("{0}: {1}", vargs.Severity, vargs.Message);
};

using (XmlReader reader = XmlReader.Creat e(@"doc.xml", settings))
{
while (reader.Read()) {}
}
Console.WriteLi ne("Document is {0}.", valid ? "valid": "not valid");
