XmlSerializer serializer = new XmlSerializer(typeof(IxComment));
System.IO.StringWriter aStream = new System.IO.StringWriter();
serializer.Serialize(aStream,Comments);
commentsString = aStream.ToString();

Here the commentsString has the the following element in it

<IxComment xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema">

Is there any possibility to interchange the xsi and xsd attribute and get the element as shown below

<IxComment xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" >

Will this cause any other issue?

EDIT: Why do i need to do this?

We are migrating an existing application from 1.1 to 3.0 and in the code there is a if loop

int iStartTagIndex = strXMLString.IndexOf("<IxComment xmlns:xsd=\"http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema\" xmlns:xsi=\"http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance\">");

that check for the index of the IxComment. Here the o/p of the serializer and the condition differ in the position of xsd and xsi. So i am trying to know whether we can instruct the serializer to provided the o/p as required.

I have another question here as this was an existing application does the serializer O/P differs with versions?
