Both the Load method and the Save method have options to control 
indendation.

You probably want to use
   XDocument doc = XDocument.Load(filename, LoadOptions.PreserveWhitespace);
and then
   doc.Save(filename, SaveOptions.DisableFormatting);

See http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb387014.aspx and

A control characterlike 0x1D is not a special reserved character, it is 
not an allowed character. CDATA sections help to make your data more 
readable as you can use
   
instead of
   a < b && b < c
but they don't help to put in characters that are not allowed in XML.

XML 1.0 does not allow that character.
I think XML 1.1 allows it if escaped with a character reference
  (e.g. & # x 1 D;, without the spaces). However Microsoft does not have 
parsers that support XML 1.1.

With the Microsoft .NET framework 2.0 or later you should also be able 
to use version="1.0", escape the character as shown above and then parse 
it with an XmlReader with XmlReaderSettings where CheckCharacters is set 
to false:

             XmlReaderSettings xrs = new XmlReaderSettings();
             xrs.CheckCharacters = false;

             using (XmlReader xr = XmlReader.Create("input.xml", xrs))
             {
                ...
             }


The proper way with XML 1.0 however would be to base64 encode such 
characters, that way you would be able to pass the file around as XML 
1.0 and any XML parser can deal with it.

MSXML Document Load does not return - 11/3/2009 10:27:00 AM

My application runs as a service using MSXML3.  Typically, it runs
without any problems, however I occasionally see the call below to
load hang and never return:

CComPtr< IXMLDOMDocument> pTempDoc;
hr =3D pTempDoc.CoCreateInstance(__uuidof(FreeThreadedDOMDocument));
=85
hr =3D pTempDoc->load(varFilePath, &bLoadResult);

The file path is to a URL that is hosted on the local machine.  If I
log on to the machine with the same user that the service is running
as I can access the URL just fine via IE.  SSL is not in the picture.
Nothing appears to have any locks on the file.  Here is a stack trace
of the thread that is hung by this call (from a mini dump:)

There's very little need for WP content on technical issues like this,

Without additional context, "valid" means "valid according to its
DTD", and that's how it's defined in the XML spec.  In the context of
XML Schemas, it can of course mean "valid according to a schema".  If
you want to be less ambiguous, use the term "schema valid" or (since
there are other schema languages) "XML Schema valid".

q) XML Schema and valid XML documents - 10/30/2009 10:50:00 AM

Wikipedia provides the following definition for valid XML document
(http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XML):

   it contains a reference to a Document Type Definition (DTD),
   and that its elements and attributes are declared in that DTD
   and follow the grammatical rules for them that the DTD
   specifies.


There is no reference to XML Schema in the above defintion.  I am
presuming that this is a dated definition for valid XML document and
that an XML document that has an XML Schema associated with it is also
a valid XML document.

Kindly confirm.

Thanks,

IXMLDOMDocument::Save() with line breaks and indenting? - 10/21/2009 7:09:00 AM

I had same problem with IXMLDOMDocument. It saves xml in huge line.
I found sample that it creates and saves xml document correctly with line breaks and indents.

The XML APIs don't expose XML line by line, rather they expose nodes.
But you can of course use the normal file IO APIs to read line by line.

And if InnerXml does not give you what you want then you might simply 
want to set PreserveWhitespace to true before you load your XML document:

   XmlDocument doc = new XmlDocument();
   doc.PreserveWhitespace = true;
   doc.Load("file.xml");
   // now doc.OuterXml/InnerXml has any white space the original 
document contains

When I use the InnerXml, it's just one long string with no CR/LF.

Can this be done?

There is a Save method which has an overload that takes a file name:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dw229a22.aspx
That serializes the DOM tree and saves it to a file.

If that is not what you want then please explain in more detail what

You have two options with SOAP. One is to use setRequestHeader. This 
works for many of the standard header types, like auth headers, content 
type, etc. If this does not help, you often have to move deeper into the 
stack, which is more easily done via a COM component than VBA itself.

If you need to actually edit the envelope rather than headers, then you 
can use the SOAP Toolkit. If this is not working for you, creating the 
XML for the SOAP envelope and message is a latch ditch effort.

If you want to access a single node you might want to use 
SelectSingleNode instead of Evaluate, that way you get an XPathNavigator 
and can access the Value property e.g.

   XPathNavigator server = 
nav.SelectSingleNode("//location[@office='JAC']/@server");
   if (server != null) // XPath found node
   {
     Console.WriteLine(server.Value);
   }
   else // handle case that no node was found
   {
     //

THANK YOU. It works perfectly.

How to get value of attribute (XPath)? - 10/7/2009 7:14:00 AM

I've been trying to return the value of an attribute named "server" but keep 
getting an XPathSelectionIterator. What do I need to change? The following 
returns "1" which is what I expected.
Console.WriteLine(nav.Evaluate("count(//location[@office='JAC'])"));
I'm thinking it should be something like
Console.WriteLine(nav.Evaluate("//location[@office='JAC']/@server"));
but that doesn't give me the value.

How to save a treeview structure as XML - 10/6/2009 1:18:00 PM

Hi!
I would like to create an xml stucture using a treeview (inside a VBA Excel 
userform). In the treeview, I can play with node (move, drag and drop, 
increase or decrease the level). I would like to save the treeview structure 
as a xml structure. Is there a way to do that?

In fact, I have an Excel file  that contains a lot of information and I want 
to create a Text Editor using an XML structure. A Word document will be 
generated according to the XML structure when the report is generated. The 
data of the .xml will be stored inside Excel cell's to avoid using multiple 
files.

Any help will be very appreciated.
Thank you!

MSXML is very much W3C DOM Level 1 Core/XML with proprietary extensions 
like createNode or selectNodes/selectSingleNode to deal with namespaces.

I am not aware of way to attach user data to MSXML nodes.

If you move to the .NET world then LINQ to XML provides a way to 
annotate LINQ to XML nodes/objects:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.xml.linq.xobject.addannotation.aspx
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.xml.linq.xnode.annotation.aspx
I think that is similar to the W3C DOM Level 3 user data.

    There is yet another solution. Instead of adding annotation data I could 
use extension methods. To continue the example I could make GetId and SetId 
extension methods for XElement. This could be generalized to other functions 
and attributes defined in SVG DOM. (Functions and attributes for more 
specific SVG elements could just check at the beginning whether the "this" 
XElement is the required one.)
    However again there are some drawbacks. First attributes no longer can 
be mapped to properties as there are no "extension properties" (pity, as I 
like properties very much). I have to have Set* and Get* methods. But this 
is a minor issue. A more important one is that the values returned by 
functions will have to be computed each time anew since the extension 
methods do not have any "memory". I might want to make some kind of cache in 
the class defining the extension method this however seems quite complex (to 
update the cache upon value change) and will be hard to control (so that the 
cache does not grow to large storing xml trees already unused).
    So after all I think that DOM-like extending System.Xml.Linq classes is 
kind of hard if at all possible.

    This seems fine enough. And possibility to "inject methods" through 
extensions seems very helpful as well (an example shown in 
http://blogs.msdn.com/mikechampion/archive/2006/09/10/748408.aspx).
    However after few small code experiments I came to a conclusion that it 
might not be enough. I considered adding classes with SVG DOM-like 
properties as annotations to the XElements. An example is the base IDL 
SVGElement which contains attributes "id" and "xmlbase" (referring to "id" 
element attribute and "xml:base" element attribute). I changed it to an 
SvgElement class with Id and XmlBase properties. But then natural question 
occurs: should those be get only or get/set? In the IDL's SVGElement they 
are get/set (with some restrictions).  If I was to support the setting how 
would I do that? I considered constructing my SvgElement with XElement (to 
which it referrers) given during construction and not only reading 
appropriate data but also storing the XElement to be able latter to set the 
data in setters.
    All fine but what if the user copies XElement? The annotation is not 
copied. (And even if I would find a way to copy it it would still be 
incorrect as internal XElement reference would be to the original XElement.) 
Also if user adds a new XElement to the tree I have very poor means to 
detect it to be able to add appropriate annotation.
    Do you have any suggestions to work around this?

With VBA, using XmlHttp, you have to set up your own authentication header.

Maybe I misread some part of the documentation or don't know C# well

example XElement.Add 
(http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb354061.aspx). Also for example

Can you explain why you think that those "classes were not meant to be

XElement

I want to implement classes for SVG DOM as described in SVG 
Specification. However I don't want to reimplement entire XML DOM because 
firstly it is a lot of work and secondly this would make using them with 
existing code harder (when compared to using System.Xml classes). I 
preferred System.Xml.Linq classes since I do not require strict conformance 
to DOM specification and I think X* classes are much easier to use. However 
it seems that those classes were not meant to be inherited from. So what are 
the options? What do you think I should do?

Oh wait ... you can't pass a string. You have to pass an xmldocument:
dim xmlSend as msxml2.domdocument
set xmlsend = new msxml2.domdocument
xmlsend.loadxml XMLConnectString
Call xmlhttp.send(xmlsend)

I suggest you use "msxml2." rather than "Microsoft." to avoid xml parser
version issues.
And it doesn't really make a lot of difference but I only use
CreateObject in vbscript ... this definietly comes under the heading of
"personal preference".

Creating simple XSL's for particular columns out of XSD Schema - 9/22/2009 3:38:00 PM

I want to create xpath query files (xsl) that will transform xml data into 
columnar format (flat files) so that I can load them into the database.
However, having trouble.... mostly do to the fact I simple forgot how to 
deal with xsl's.

Can somebody point me a GUI (free or trial based) tool that will take XSD 
Schema as input and will allow me to pick fields and its output will be a 
short xsl file, just like the one below.  I have a good idea how the table 
sctructure is or should be.  Database, SQL Server 2008, created the table, 
but it wants "annotated" xsd for loading the data into multiple tables. 
Whatever that is - I already hate this direct load into the database.

So, for practical purposes, extracting data into multiple flat files with 
delimeters is good enough.
Can I get some advice about which tool to use.  Altova has so many of 
them..... when you want something quick in the XML world, it turns into a 
scientific R&D project.

I installed their MapForce..... and then what..... cannot figure it out for 
the life of me.
Imported the XSD file..... and there is nothing intuitive there.....lots of 
menu's and button.
Need to find a simple way of doing this.

Re: Office 2007 RibbonX (XML) Validation - 9/13/2009 8:20:00 AM

Hello Greg,

u'll find a link to the 'Office Custom UI Editor' in the following article:
http://openxmldeveloper.org/archive/2009/08/07/7293.aspx
...Contains both Office 2007 and Office 2010 custom UI schemas ...
You have to add the schemas to the envirmonment of your xmlEditor.
eg in VisualStudio put them to ~Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio 
9.0\Xml\Schemas

I don't know the answer to your question but it helped me learn
more about  XML Schema Definition Language (XSD).

E.g. this page and its MSDN related links are all readable.

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa468549.aspx

(Microsoft search for
    xml schema
)

I won't tell you all the weird searches I tried before
I refined my understanding enough to find this.   ; )

What are "the extensions provided to xml"?

Anyway, what's relevant is the XML spec, and that one doesn't allow 
attributes on end tags.

Attributes to end element - 9/11/2009 4:32:00 AM

Hi..
I am trying to add an attribute to the end element.I believe that
attributes
to the end element are allowed in the extensions provided to xml.
Can anyone provide me information on what options i  have to add to
the schema
to enable this?

I am trying to calculate the CRC of a xml file and write it to xml as
the attribute
of the end element.
Thanks in advance
Bhavana

Hi,

The answer turned out to be quite simple:

object."#text"

Thanks again.

I am not familiar with the API or object model Powershell exposes for 
XML manipulation.

What you have posted is not well-formed XML with namespace, the prefix 
'xsi' needs to be bound to a URI.

Which API in which programming language exactly do you use?
