I need to import xml documents containing heirarchical data, for which I have an xsd style sheet.
If I try to load these into the xmladapter, I get a parsing error on the first line. The first line is simply ?xml version="1.0" ? (with the usual brackets, which this message won't allow me to add)..
I assume the problem is that the document is not in one of the formats that xmladapter supports.

Does anyone have a recommendation as to what would be the most efficient way to handle this?
Is there some simple way of converting an xml document into a format that the xmladapter will load?
Is there another way of parsing it, (short of manually walking the dom)?
Is there a good third party tool? (I can load this document into xmlspy and it will parse it fine, but that seems overkill.. since xmlspy is a fairly heavy app that takes some time to load)...

Appreciate any suggestions

Thanks,

Ilmar
