Remarks
The IGeoDatasetSchemaEdit interface is an optional interface that allows you to change the spatial reference associated with an existing dataset.
Note that the AlterSpatialReference method does not project or otherwise modify the existing data in the dataset-this method merely rewrites the spatial reference associated with the dataset. The caller is responsible for ensuring the correctness and appropriateness of the supplied spatial reference. Its most common use is to supply a spatial reference for a dataset whose spatial reference is currently tagged as Unknown.
