What's the best way to pass xml data to a web service: as XmlDocument,
or as a string, or....? (the xml data is structured by XSD)
Thanks,
kind regards,

That's definitely the better option. If it is a web service and it
offers a WSDL file, then you can auto generate the proxies and be done with
it.
Thanks for the help!

Why not? Surely a strongly typed object (that represents a well-formed Xml
Document) is better than a crummy old string?

Ludwig,
ASP.NET webservices can serialize / deserialize and accept an XmlDocument
instance as an input parameter to a WebMethod. Internally this materializes
as an XmlNodeList I believe.

Yes, I've read that.... but I didn't know if this is the best way to
do it.......

Yes.... but I want it to be 'open' and platform independent, and I was
not sure whether I should use a .NET framework class like XmlDocument.
If I would use this and send it to another company that does not use
..NET, can they still parse the XML with java for example?

The "Xml" has to go over the wire in string form inside an XML SOAP Envelope.
All SOAP Messages are essentially "strings" - even binary data is
"string-ified". You can check with other vendors' platforms to see how they
treat a complete XML Document as being the payload or a parameter.

When an XmlDocument is exposed as a parameter or return value of a web
service in ASP.NET, the WSDL produces a schema for that parameter/return
value of a complex type with a single element which allows any element. So
basically, the content is open-ended. I can't imagine another platform that
doesn't handle this in some manner.

Use string.
I am pretty sure that a web service using XmlDocument will
not be usable from non-.NET languages.
