Is the XML well-formed otherwise?Does it work with "UTF-16" or "UTF-8" encoding instead?

yes the xml is well formed, it woks with utf-8 and utf-16le also but the problem comes only when i try to save the file in unicode big endian.

Try saving your document as Unicode big endian, instead of UTF-8 or Unicode.To do so in Notepad, click Save As and in the encoding drop down menu select "Unicode big endian". Of course, you should also select "All files" and type in the exact name, but I bet you already know that.
