I believe that if you set the XmlResolver property of the XmlTextReader to null, it will ignore the remote DTD. If that doesn't do it, you could define your own XmlResolver derived class which processes the remote DTD in any way you like. John
Thanks John!
However that doesn't work, if I disable the DTD, I get an XmlException: "The DTD is deactivate, activate it this way..." So I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place. I don't want to valid the DTD because there is no network and the XML reader doesn't want to read the XML document because the DTD is not validated...

I have some XML file like that:
=== <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple Computer//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd"> <plist version="1.0"> <dict> <key>affiliateId</key> <string>AFL9124395098</string> ........................... === Now when I'm reading them with XmlDocument or XmlTextReader the reader try to connect to aple (because of <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple Computer//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">) and that causes exception when there is no network (and of course the XmlTextReader or XmlDocument fail to read the text) The problem is: I don't care about apple schema, I do the reading myself and it's going to be alllright. Is there a way I could skip over it? -- Regards, Lloyd Dupont NovaMind development team NovaMind Software Mind Mapping Software <www.nova-mind.com>

Just cut out the DocType Declaration before the file gets processed (ie pass it through a filter of some kind, like sed). Or filter it so that the SYSTEM Identifier resolves to a local file, and keep a copy of the DTD at that filename. ///Peter -- XML FAQ: http://xml.silmaril.ie/ [quoted text, click to view] > "John Saunders" <john.saunders at trizetto.com> wrote in message

I had avoid that if I could. That makes it forgetfulness prone. Our Mac developer edit the fil with the PList editor which puts that in. Every time they edit a file I will have to go after them.....

Now when you edit/process the document, it will validate against the local copy. You can replace /some/directory with whatever is suitable for your system. sed is available for Microsoft systems both with and without Cygwin support, I believe. ///Peter --
mmh....
