XMLDoc.Load 1072896760

I receive the error code 1072896760, whenever I try to .Load the XML
file to read the values inside. Error Message = "An invalid character
was found in text content."
I have determined that it is the French Character "é" that is causing
the problem. The Unicode is set to "UTF-8". Is there anything that I
can do on my end, in order to read load this XML file, or do I need to
have it changed at the senders side?

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

You can always try to change the document before passing it to the
parser, but here it seems that the document is indeed not well-formed,
so you should check with the sender how this can be addressed.

You should ask the sender of the document to specify the correct
encoding of the document through a XML declaration. "UTF-8" is
not it in this case.
