Converting PostedFile to an XMLDocument.

[Thomasa Gregg]

I need to convert an HTTPPostedFile I am getting from the client to an
XMLDocument. The class I am using must have a document. The following
gives me an error when I try and build. I cannot change the converting
class.

Any help would be appreciated.

The error is:
Value of type 'System.Web.HttpPostedFile' cannot be converted to
'System.Xml.XmlDocument'

The code:
Select Case Extension

Case "xml"

ConvertXML.LoadCMRToTempTables(Session.SessionID,
SelectedFile.PostedFile) <<< error here.

Case ".B8"

ConvertB8.LoadB8IntoTempTables(Session.SessionID,
SelectedFile.PostedFile)

End Select

You can't convert HTTPPostedFile to XmlDocument. Instead you can load
content of HTTPPostedFile to XmlDocument:

XmlDocument doc = new XmlDocument();
doc.Load(postedFile.InputStream);
