Sending text to my webmethod returns exception

[@rturo]

I have a webservice running and I have a method with a string parameter.
The method is quering an xml file but i need to enter the exact letter case
in the string to get the right reult otherwise is returning me and Exception.

for example this xml...

<location id="123">Finance</location>
<location id="124">Operations</location>

if the parameter i send is "finance" i'll get an exception. It will only let
me enter "Finance" to get the right Response.

Please help me

Hello @rturo,

If you are using the xml file, it is case sensitive only, and allows the
comparisions of the attributes or elements of xml file with case sensitivity.
If you wish to compare the strings from client app with xml file without
case sensitivity then You can convert the strings to upper or lower case in
the webservice only and then go on with the function logic.
Also, if you don't convert the string to lower or upper case, then also it
does not throw any exception to you, there is a possibility that some bug
might have been introduced in the code only.

Hope this helps you, let me know in case of further assistance.
