Yes, this is what I eventually had to do with all characters except the 5 main ones (& < > ' "), i.e. I had to use the decimal reference instead of the character reference.
It still gives me problems occasionally though. Seems like it's not consistent - like sometimes the xml parser will catch and fail on something and the next time it won't. I'm reading in a file that was created in ColdFusion and I've had problems with ColdFusion not being able to check for certain characters as well so I've had to put in some "hoky" code to check for certain situations. It's been a painful process, but one that seems to be stable for now.

I don't think encoding is the problem, translating entities is. I don't think I can help, just pointing out the direction.
