Which application is that where you import the XML? How exactly do you 
do that, post the code if "trying to automate" means you are writing 
code to do that.

The '-' character is not allowed before the root element so it looks as 
if you did not post the real XML but rather what IE presents you. You 
will need to look at the source of the XML and post that if you think 
there is a problem with the XML.
