XmlSerializer help with derived class

I cannot figure out how to get my class to serialize the way I want it
to. Basically, I have generated a number of classes using the XSD
utility. I then created a derived class from one of the generated
classes to add a default constructor and helper methods. When this
class serializes, it includes the xsi:type attribute of my derived
type. Because my derived type is not in my schema, validation fails.

How can I get my derived type to serialize as if it were the base type?
For example, if I have an object of type "derivedClass", instead of
something like this:

<baseClass xsi:type="derivedClass">
....
</baseClass>

I just want:

<baseClass>
....
</baseClass>

I can't figure out the appropriate element attributes or overrides to
make this work. Can it be done? Thanks for your help.

Jeff
