Hi,

Sorry for the delay in the response.
What character set is the file in?
Is this a UTF-8 file, or using windows-1252 character set?
If it's not a UTF-8 file you may need to set the Charset parameter on the Optional tab of the node in order to specify the character set of the file that you are reading.

Regards,
Tim.

Haha, and I'm only seeing this response now, 3 weeks later.

I had an XML file that I wanted to parse. It was a large file, so I thought I would be doing myself a favor by stripping out a few records to test. But in doing so, I had removed the header, which specified the encoding. Therefore, I ended up having to specify UTF-8 in the Optional/Charset field. When I plugged the original XML file, UTF-8 no longer needs to be specified as the node pulls it from the header.

So all this to say what the documentation already says - Lavastorm will read the encoding from the XML header, and if it's not there, as Tim suggested, you may need to manually specify the character set.
