I am getting following error while reading a XML file.

PS> [xml]$FileContents = Get-Content -read 10kb "C:\test.xml"
Cannot convert value "System.Object[]" to type "System.Xml.XmlDocument".
Error: "'>' is an unexpected token. The expected token is '"' or '''. Line
2, position 58."At line:1 char:28
+ [xml]$FileContents <<<< = Get-Content -read 10kb "C:\test.xml"


Here are the contents of my test.xml file

<?xml version="1.0" ?>
<!DOCTYPE QXML PUBLIC '-//ABC//DTD XML QBD 2.0//EN'>
<QXML>
<XMLMsgsRq onError="continueOnError">
<Rq requestID="11002_Add">
<Add>
<Name>Cust1</Name>
<FirstName>First</FirstName>
<OpenBalance>456.12</OpenBalance>
</Add>
</Rq>
</XMLMsgsRq>
</QXML>


It is not parsing the <!DOCTYPE QXML PUBLIC '-//ABC//DTD XML QBD 2.0//EN'>
line. If I remove this then the XML is properly read.

Is this the way the XML should be read? Or there is some problem with
PowerShell cmdlet?

Thanks,
Nikhil

doctype *must be* the first line

Should you use " rather than ' in Doctype?

Try <!DOCTYPE QXML PUBLIC "-//ABC//DTD XML QBD 2.0//EN">
