Displaying HTML in c#

I'm trying to be clever. Silly of me really.

What I want to do is to extract (possibly complex) views if data from
SQLServer in XML.

Then to render them via an XSL stylesheet into a Windows Form (benefits are
I can change data included and layout without recompiling - and indeed have
custom views per user and so on).

Obviously I need some sort of HTML renderer to do this.

My researches so far show that there is no such animal under ,NET which,
frankly, astonishes me.

Instead you have to use ShDocVw which appears cumbersome. It also (I think)
will not take its HTML from a stream or String meaning I have to create lots
of temporary files.

Before I junk this idea and go with old fashioned technology, is there any
nice clean way of doing this? Or an *simple* samples.

Hope someone can point me.
