Hi, Thanks David for the suggestion to join a different group.
The requirement is to read in the XML data as Xerces DOMDocument, since it requires for other existing functionalities. We browsed through some of the messages in this list like "http://www.mail-archive.com/xalan-c-users@xml.apache.org/msg02716.html";, which I am looking at it. Kindly suggest if there are other inputs to this.

Please subscribe and post future questions there. I will post a reply to that list. Please make sure you reply _only_ on the user list. My first question would be to ask why you need to use the Xerces-C DOM. It is possible to use such an instance within Xalan-C by wrapping it, but it is very inefficient. You should only do this if you need to modify the DOM before or after processing it with Xalan-C.
