Can't fetch the xml: roots element are missing

[benclissen]

Hi,
I want to do something simple read an xml and print out just 1 value.
Now everytime I do this I got this "Root elements are missing"
exception. I try it by using xmlreader, dataset or xpath; always the
same error.
I someone could help me out here and give me some possible causes (and
hopefully solutions)
Dim reader As New
StreamReader("http://ww5.ethias.be/auto55.go?IMSTRAN=WA2017&CDOPTRN=A2A55&CDLGTRN=N.. .")

While reader.Read
If reader.Name = "QUOTEID" Then
lblGARCI.Text = reader.Value
End If
End While
The problem is on the first line.
Thanks a bunch for your help,
Regards,
Ben

Ben the error says:-"Root elements are missing" exception
Try looking at your XML root document
Or try pasting what your XML looks like
