Thank you very much. I will try this. I may not be able to replace with XDocument since it involves too many code changes.<br />
<br />
Thanks again.

I have an &amp;&nbsp;character in one of the xml nodes as below.<br />

&lt;dependents&gt;9 &amp;&nbsp;5&lt;/dependents&gt;<br />

When I try to load the file as below, it is giving an error &nbsp;&quot;An error occured while parsing EntityName.&quot;. Is it possible to escape this character and load successfully? Thank yu.<br />

Is it possible to escape &amp; while loading xml?

C# is an object-oriented programming language created in conjunction with Microsoft’s .NET framework. Compilation is usually done into the Microsoft Intermediate Language (MSIL), which is then JIT-compiled to native code (and cached) during execution in the Common Language Runtime (CLR).

The .NET Framework is not specific to any one programming language; rather, it includes a library of functions that allows developers to rapidly build applications. Several supported languages include C#, VB.NET, C++ or ASP.NET.
