How to fix the invalid characters in the xml text using Visual Basic?

[Sachiien Patil]

Hi Gurus,

I was reading from a xml doc using Visual basic. I was doing it fine until i got this error message in my browser, when i was trying to open that xml file, i got the following error- An invalid character was found in text content. Error processing resource 'file:///C:/EAL-00056-082.xml'. Line 1, Position...



I tried to look into what was the issue.

and found that the text that was inside a xml tag, had an apostrophe 's. ie(Land’s Motion) and hence i was not able to see the xml file generated on the browser, once i remove the single quote of the apostrophe i am able to open the document in the browser.



Is there a way how i can overcome this problem of singlequote in the text content of the xml file??? so that i am able to open the file in a browser.

Can i replace the single quote with something else, How is it handled whille in VB.
