How to get the currently read XmlNode object?

Colleagues,
As usual, I couldn't find the answer to the question in subject in the MS Documentation (they associate the XmlNode objects with XmlDocument, not with XmlReader).
When I have the XmlReader read the next node, how do I get the node itself?
Here's the code I have now:

CODE --> .NET

Do While loXMLReader.Read()
      lsXMLNodeContents = lsEndTag = ""

'What code should be here (provided I have declared loXMLNode As XmlNode before the Do While cycle)?

      If XmlNode.HasChildNodes Then
         lsBuffer = lsBuffer & "Node " & Chr(34) & loXMLReader.Name & Chr(34) & " has children, written As-Is" & vbCrLf
         lcHdrStr = lcHdrStr & "<" & loXMLReader.Name & ">" & vbCrLf & IIf(tlFormat, vbCrLf, "")
         loStreamWriter.Write(lcHdrStr)
         Continue Do
      End If
'some other codes, that sorts amd modifies the contents of a node just read
Loop 'While loXMLReader.Read()

TIA!

Regards,

Ilya
