Can any one let me know how I can DOCTYPE (DTD declaration) to the XML
generated by XmlSerializer

Hi, all!  Using VS.Net 2003 (vb.net)...
I've build a sample app (Windows application) to manipulate xml data from
file, and all works fine.  However, when I move code that works fine from
the Windows app into a SmartDevice app template, I'm getting an error

Can someone give me an example of how to use a
stored procedure that returns XML data?
I want to call the SP from a VBScript program,
and put the XML into a data island in the generated HTML.

Is there an easier way to pull a subset of nodes from one XmlDocument to
another?  I have the code below but would like to know if there is a more
streamlined method. Thanks, Dave
XmlNodeList nodeList =  doc1.SelectNodes("//row");

example:
I have a skill object that implements the XmlSerializable interface
Implementing the getschema gives me some unwanted generations towards
the wsdl.exe Reference.cs generation.

I have another newbie xml/.net question.  All apologies.  I'm trying to
get an aspx file to modify an XSLT file based on a querystring.  ie.
recipe.aspx?recipe=cheesecake will add this line to the XSLT file:
<xsl:param name="recipe" select="cheesecake" />

Does anyone have any advice on a good XPath book? Perhaps two
books, one at a beginners/intermediate level and one advanced. While
on the subject I wouldn't mind some advice on the same kind of books
for XSLT.

Could anyone tell me if this is possible please?
I have a class which looks like the following
Class MyClass
   public mblnUpdateMyProp1 as boolean

In order to sign a message, you can use a UserName token from the client
(endpoint) , however must you use a X509 certificate to sign the response
message from the service (endpoint) ?
I am trying to figure out if I have to use X509 certs., service side, in

I am having trouble reading an XML document in and looping through it's
nodes in VB.NET.  The error is specific, it is:
"There is no Unicode byte order mark. Cannot switch to Unicode."
The file that I am trying to read begins with:

I have to do some case-insensitive queries on a XML document using XPath.
Because XML 1.0 and XPath 1.0 are case-sensitive this is a little bit tricky.
Sample document:
<books>

We are developing a .net application that can accept xml documents.
Every xml document can match a single schema, or it may be composed by
multiple different elements and each of these can match a different xsd
schema.

Say i have this Xml file
<Books>
<Book type="1">
 <Author>Peter</Author>

New to xml, working from and O'Reily book... I have a simple bit of
XML:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<?xml-stylesheet type="application/xml" href="Transform.xsl"?>

I fill myDataset from a Excel file.
Then I do a myDataset.WriteXML("C:\MyXML.xml")
So far everything goes as I want to.
But I need a attribute when a node has a value
