Converting XML doc to String

I am using the follwing code to change a xml document:

DocumentBuilderFactory fty1 = DocumentBuilderFactory.newInstance();
   fty1.setNamespaceAware(true);
   DocumentBuilder builder1 = fty1.newDocumentBuilder();
   ByteArrayInputStream bais1 = new ByteArrayInputStream(tr1.getBytes());//tr1=xml string
   Document xmldoc1=builder1.parse(bais1);
   xmldoc1.getElementsByTagName("userID").item(0).setTextContent("123123132");


The xmldoc1 contains the changed form. Now how convert it to a string so that the new doument can be passed to others.

Transformer transformer = TransformerFactory.newInstance().newTransformer();
transformer.setOutputProperty(OutputKeys.INDENT, "yes");        
StringWriter sw = new StringWriter();
StreamResult result = new StreamResult(sw);
DOMSource source = new DOMSource(xmldoc1);
transformer.transform(source, result);
String xmlString = sw.toString();
