Yep - that works fine. Its when the transform is mad into an XmlReader instance it seems to go nuts.
I'll mibbae try the simplest example possible :) Cheers.

Well... this simple test of XmlReader works as expected: <codeSnippet language="C#"> XmlReader reader = new XmlTextReader(new StringReader(@"<root><child/></root>")); reader.MoveToContent(); Debug.WriteLine(reader.ReadOuterXml()); </codeSnippet> So, I'm guessing it's something to related to the specific approach. You get the the XmlReader back from XslTransform::Transform and just call MoveToContent then ReadOuterXml right away? Is it possible to post your exact code?
