We have a column in the database that has a type of xml. I am reading this information via the .net SqlDataReader, but I’m not sure what to cast it to.

The msdn table (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/cc716729.aspx) suggests that is of the .net type Xml, but there is no System.Xml, only System.Web.UI.WebControls.Xml so I’m not sure if that is correct.

So my question is this:

What do I cast the SqlDbType.Xml to as I’m reading it from a SqlDataReader, and how do I convert that to XmlDocument?

    I remember casting it to a string. Feeding XmlDocument with a string works as usual then.
