and I have to remove the portion xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" only.

I tried using sed command like:
sed 's% xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"%%' old.xml >new.xml
but didnot work.
Any help will be much appreciated.
TIA.

Code:
awk '/<AutoData/{print $1">";next}1' file

used awk '{ gsub(/ xmlns:xsi\=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2001\/XMLSchema-instance"/,"") } 1' file.
It worked. Thanks.
