Why not just use the Load method to read to file directly? What is the exact exception message? Typically it will indicate what is wrong with the file. — Mike Zboray

LoadXml is for loading from a file. You want what Pooli said below. — pquest

Consider replacing

   XmlDocument xdoc = new XmlDocument();
   xdoc.LoadXml(xml);

With

XDocument xml = XDocument.Parse(xml)
