Thank you very much. Now the XML starts to load and I am using the more complex version of the XML file. This file is what we are downloading from a store site that we have no control over. The XML is pointing to an XSD file located at the store site. The error I am getting is

XML Error: XML Parse error: The element 'export_pos_response' is used but not declared in the DTD/Schema.
Line 2, Position 193

Line 2 in the XML looks like this

<export_pos_response xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="https://xxx.xxxxxxxxxxxxx.xxx/xxxxxx/xxx/export_pos_response.xsd" schemaVersion="4.3">

I tried setting the .LoadXML 3rd parameter to .F. but that returned an even more cryptic error message.

Any more ideas?

Thanks
