Hi Pranav
I am assuming that you are not interested in the resource that the
XmlTextReader is going to the web to retrieve? Ie. That you are only
interested in the raw XML data? Here are a couple of other suggestions that
may help:
1. It maybe that the XmlTextReader is validating the XML file and in order
to do this, it is looking for the scheme or DTD referrenced in the XML file.
You could try turning validation off for the XmlTextReader.
2. You could also simply remove the reference to the external file from the
XML file before you try reading it.
Obviously you run the risk of handling potentially invalid XML files but I
suspect this won't be important in your scenario. If it is, then you could
always retrieve the external resources with the XML file itself, save them
all locally, and modify the references in the XML to point to the local
copies. Again, if the schema changes, your app may fail, but then this would
be the case if you were reading the validating anyway and would require
changes to your code to allow for any relevant changes anyway.
Cheers
Ian

Hi Ian,
Yes and the code does not go out to the web. I have read some more and
suspect that I need to set the xml resolver to nothing. I know that I have
to use the xml reader settings object but cannot see how to do that.
In addition, I tried switching to using the xmlDocument object since it is
easy to set the resolver to nothing but that lead to a host of problems so I
wont go there yet.

Did you try the passing in the simplified XML I provided or something
similar?
Cheers

Sorry,
I have now tried setting standalone to "yes" without any success.

Pranav,
David was suggesting that you try setting standalone to "yes".
