Re: unexpected BOM in XML file

[Vernon Hamberg <vhamberg@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Charles - which one no longer gets the error? the one with CCSID 1208? 
If so, that makes sense - the BOM is an optional thing with UTF-8, 
XML-INTO might know that if the CCSID marks the file as UTF-8 - now is 
there some option in XML-INTO that says, interpret as UTF-8 no matter what?
