Hi All,

I'm loading an XML file in my app from a network location - if this network path specifies an XML file on a UNIX server, is there anything different I have to do? Will the file open just as an ordinary file?

Thanks in advance!

A UNIX file will have different carriage returns, apart from that, there's no difference. If it doesn't work ( and why didn't you try it before asking ? ), then I would read the string and do a replace on \n ( from memory, could be \r tho ), with Environment.NewLine.

Hi Christian,

The XML is always created on windows, but might be stored on a unix machine, so the newlines thing shouldn't be a problem - setting up a unix server is what i'll do next, just wanted to get a rough idea of whether i'd be banging my head against a brick wall!
