Convert DOMDocument to System.Xml.Document?

Newbie question: Any easy way to convert a DOMDocument to a
System.Xml.Document?

Dim DOMDocument As DOMDocument40

to this

Dim xmlDoc As System.Xml.XmlDocument

Thanks,

The easiest way might be to output the XML from the DOMDocument (I can't
remember which property/method does this) and load it into the LoadXml
method on the XmlDocument object.

I don't understand why you need to use two different XML imlementations
in one application (after all the XML format should allow you to use any
parser) but it seems that
xmlDoc.LoadXml(DOMDocument.xml)
should work.

Yes, that did the trick. By way of explanation: communicating with eBay is
done thru DOMDocument, but as a .NET developer I would prefer to use
system.xml as much as possible, so I want to convert from DOM up front.
Thanks.
