I still don't quite understand your question, probably because I do not understand what it is you want to do, but let me throw out a few thoughts.
Since your message is on this list, I assume your question relates to SOAP and not XML in general. If you want to use SOAP to do remote procedure calls, you do not have to worry about the underlying XML format it will use. Apache SOAP can be used to serialize your Java objects as XML without too much work on your part. The GetAddress client in the addressbook sample is a nice example of this. On the other hand, if you have data in XML format that you want to transmit using SOAP, you have at least two options. You can read the document into a DOM then use the "literal XML" encoding of Apache SOAP to transfer the data in a SOAP message. The GetAllListings addressbook sample shows the use of literal XML. You could alternatively leverage the SOAP attachments capability to send the XML document as an attachment. The mime sample shows how to use attachments. I hope this helps you and/or generates more questions to post to this list.
