Read an xml file that has special characters. I have a translation file in Italian that I am trying to read from xml. The strings were within the VB code but we transferred them to the attached xml. As the reader progresses it finds some characters that it cannot process. The routine that we have is: Public Sub initializeStrings() Dim dir As String = [login to view URL] Try Dim pos As Integer = [login to view URL]("DEEP") If pos > 0 Then dir = [login to view URL](pos + 4) End If Catch ex As Exception End Try Dim file As New XmlDataDocument() [login to view URL](dir & "\Language\" & [login to view URL] & "[login to view URL]") [login to view URL] = [login to view URL]("Language").SelectSingleNode("ReportStrings") End Sub The [login to view URL] is Public strings As XmlNode = Nothing The exception that we get is: [login to view URL] was unhandled HResult=-2146232000 LineNumber=757 LinePosition=74 Message=Invalid character in the given encoding. Line 757, position 74. Source=[login to view URL] SourceUri=file:///C:/DeepExcavation/Visual Studio Software Development/Visual Studio Projects/DeepeXcav 2014/DEEP/Language/[login to view URL]
