IE5.5 happy with <xsl:import> but VB crashes

> Hi, 
> 
> I have an XML document that includes a reference to an external
> stylesheet. The referenced stylesheet uses the <xsl:import/> directive to
> import other stylesheets. When I view the document in IE5.5 the
> transformation completes successfully, including the imported templates.
> 
> If I instead apply the stylesheet within Visual Basic 6 using
> transformNodeToObject then VB crashes (Dr. Watson error). However if I
> remove the <xsl:import/> directive from the stylesheet VB performs the
> remaining transformation successfully.
> For some reason including <xsl:import> causes VB to crash where IE5.5 is
> perfectly happy.
> Is there someting I don't know about how VB handles <xsl:import/>  ?
