Reading MSMQ messages from VB.net Windows Service

Question

Hi, How can I read MSMQ messages from a VB.net Windows Service written in VB.net 2008. The messages in MQ contains XML data. I need to read that XML using LinQ to XML, Validate against XSD.

I would really appreciate if you can direct me to a sample

I would suggest looking into WCF using the MsmqIntegrationBinding. I've recently done the same (except using the netMsmqBinding since I was not integrating with a pre-existing system), and it has worked out very well. For samples, you should look at the WCF Samples provided by Microsoft.
