Reading XML attributes with C#

Why do I always get '0' for attribute when i have tags like:
<GNRS someAttribute="12">Some Text</GNRS>

I read the attribute with:

aReader.GetAttribute("someAttribute");

where aReader is a XmlTextReader type

Make sure the reader is positioned at GNRS element start tag when you
call aReader.GetAttribute("someAttribute").
