XSLT version 2.0 transformation problem with C#

Hi I've got several XSLT 2.0 files. I need to transform these with C#.. I use the following code I got from this site: http://www.csharpfriends.com/Articles/getArticle.aspx?articleID=63

public bool Transform(string XMLPath, string XSLPath, string newXMLname){

        try{

            XPathDocument myXMLPath = new XPathDocument(XMLPath);          //load the Xml doc
            XslCompiledTransform myXSLTrans = new XslCompiledTransform();

            myXSLTrans.Load(XSLPath);                                       //load the Xsl 

            XmlTextWriter myWriter = new XmlTextWriter(newXMLname, null);     //create the output stream

            myXSLTrans.Transform(myXMLPath, null, myWriter);                   //do the actual transform of Xml ---> fout!!??

            myWriter.Close() ;
            return true;


        }catch(Exception e){

            return false;
        }
    }

But it doesn't work.. I think it's because I use XSLT version 2.0. Is there a code/way to do this? Because there is no way to change my XSLT files to version 1.0...

Thanks in advance!

The two XSLT 2.0 processors that are designed to work in the .NET environment are Saxon.NET and XQSharp.

The XslCompiledTransform and XslTransform processors that come as part of .NET only implement XSLT 1.0.

Natively .Net Framework doesn't support XSLT 2.0. I would suggest to use XSLT 1.0, but if you can't, then use third party component, for example Saxon.
