Thanks!  Exactly the kind of feedback I was looking for.

I am not contrained by MSXML's behavior, but some of my users may be
accustomed to their error handling.  Interesting that you should bring up
the error versus fatal error issue b/c I was wondering exactly how I should
treat these errors.  Should I return an error which can skip the rest of my
users code, or don't return an error and trust that they check my output of
parse errors.  I had been planning on returning an error and populating a
parse errors array with all available error messages.

Thanks.

Elliot,
Diiging into the parser documentation  I found the following  method in the

parser named
setValidationConstraintFatal.

It is set to false by default, but if it is set to true then the parser
will
treat a validation error as
fatal and will exit depending of the state of setExitOnFirstFatalError (
which by default it is set to true).

In my opinion, settting setValidationConstraintFatal( true) and making sure

that
setExitOnFirstFataErrorError(true), should cause the parser to only report
the first vaildation
error.

I don't know if thisl works and if it would be similiar to MS parser
behavior but it would be worth it
trying it.

Regards,
