Unable to read the attributes of child nodes using XML DOM in Access 2003

Question

I have searched the web for perhaps 8 hours including Experts Exchange and Stackoverflow and have found others with the same issue but I\'ve not found a solution to this issue.

Answer 1

Always validate xml string when there is issue to parse it,

Verify Your XML Syntax

Copy your string to know if its error free.

Updated XML
