Adding and Removing Namespaces in an XML Message Document

In this use case, the Namespace component provided with the ​Microsoft BizTalk ESB Toolkit adds namespaces to, or removes namespaces from, documents and messages, as illustrated in Figure 1. This prevents namespace clashes or errors arising when documents use default namespaces.
