How to replace namespace in xml using XMLReader

Hi Guys,

I have a block of code that validates an xml file against a schema:

Code:

---

Private Function ValidateXmlWithXsd(xmlUri As String, xsdUri As String) As String
        Dim strMessage As String = String.Empty

        Try

            Dim xmlSettings As New XmlReaderSettings()
            xmlSettings.Schemas = New System.Xml.Schema.XmlSchemaSet()
            xmlSettings.Schemas.Add("myschema", xsdUri)
            xmlSettings.ValidationType = ValidationType.Schema

            AddHandler xmlSettings.ValidationEventHandler, New ValidationEventHandler(AddressOf SettingsValidationEventHandler)

            Dim reader As XmlReader = XmlReader.Create(xmlUri, xmlSettings)

            While reader.Read()
            End While

            If nErrors > 0 Then
                Status = False
                strMessage = strErrorMsg
            Else
                Status = True
                strMessage = "Validation Passed"
            End If

            reader.Close()

            Return strMessage
        Catch ex As Exception
            Return False
        Finally

        End Try
    End Function

This works great. However I've setup a namespace in the schema. When I am sent the xml file the namespace generated on the clients side is different. I need to change the namespace to the one I have in my schema. Please let me know how to do this.

thanks Matt. I've seen that article but it applies to an XDocument only
