xsltransform.tr ansform() method not works in 2003

Hi all,

I am using VS2003. I am new to VS2003. I cannot transform an xml file into a string output in my windows application. But the same function works well with VS2005. it also asks for xmlresolver in the transform() function. I provided Nothing as 4th parameter, eventhough it doesnt work. anybody can help me?. I dont know where i am wrong. I need to create html files with this xml data.

Public Shared Function CreateHtmlFile(ByVal ds As DataSet, ByVal xslpath As String) As String
 
Dim document As XmlDocument ' Xml document root
Dim navigator As XPathNavigator ' navigate document
Dim transformer As XslTransform ' transform document
Dim output As StringWriter
 
document = New XmlDocument()
document.LoadXml(ds.GetXml())
 
' create navigator
navigator = document.CreateNavigator
 
' load style sheet
transformer = New XslTransform()
transformer.Load(xslpath)
 
 
 
' transform XML data
output = New StringWriter()
 transformer.Transform(navigator, Nothing, output)
 
' display transformation in text box
Console.WriteLine(output.ToString)
 
' write transformation result to disk
Dim stream As FileStream = _
New FileStream("c:\Billcustomer1.html", FileMode.Create)
 
Dim writer As StreamWriter = New StreamWriter(stream)
writer.Write(output.ToString)
 
' close streams
writer.Close()
output.Close()
Return output.ToString()
End Function 
 

With thanks,
Sudha

Does the function return any error message you can post? And why don't you just use VB.NET 2005 instead of VB.NET 2003 if it works in 2005?
