Subject: VB.NET and XML

Question
A function in a web service returns some data in XML format. My question is: How should I declare a function in my program to get that XML. I did some tests but they all fail. Here is one:

webservice function:
Public Function givemedata() as xmlDocument
  Dim test as new xmldocument
  'Here we add some data   
  Return test
End Func

My program function:
Sub GetData() As xmlDocument
  Dim Data As New xmlDocument
  Data = webservice.givemedata()
End Sub


Answer
Modify as below
webservice function:
Public Function givemedata() as String
 Dim test as string 'Put your XML here.
 'Here we add some data   
 Return test
End Func

My program function:
Sub GetData()
 Dim Data As xmlDocument
 Data = new xmlDocument(webservice.givemedata())
End Sub
