ReadOuterXml Issue

[stvnegert]

When I try to do the following in a vb.net application:


[code=vbnet]
While xtr.Read() And recordCnt < loopCount

If xtr.NodeType = XmlNodeType.Ele ment Then
If (xtr.Name = "Employee") Then
recordCnt = recordCnt + 1
strWriter = New StringWriter
UID = ""
strWriter.Write (xtr.ReadOuterX ml)
Dim xdoc As New XmlDocument
'writeObj = CreateObject("M SXML2.DOMDocume nt")


If docType = "devplan" Then
xdoc.LoadXml("< ?xml version=""1.0"" encoding=""utf-16"" ?><Batch><Devel opmentPlan>" & strWriter.ToStr ing & "</DevelopmentPlan ></Batch>")
Else
xdoc.LoadXml("< ?xml version=""1.0"" encoding=""utf-16"" ?><Batch><Talen tProfile>" & strWriter.ToStr ing & "</TalentProfile></Batch>")
End If
End While

[/code]

Every other record seems to get skipped when I try to use readouterxml within the while read() loop. Any ideas why this happening or what I can do to fix this issue?

Thanks.

Should be a xtr.OuterXML

ReadOuterXML will advance it if I remember correctly

I am using XmlTextReader and Outer XML is not property within this class.

I would advise avoiding xmltextreader.. . At least, I really dont like it. Props to you use it. I prefer doing something like this:

        Dim SReader As System.IO.StreamReader = New System.IO.StreamReader(filelocation)
        Dim XMLDocument As System.Xml.XmlDocument
        XMLDocument.LoadXml(SReader.ReadToEnd())
        SReader.Close()

        'Use XMLDocument from here on out...
