Explains the reason for the error.
Syntax
strValue = oXMLDOMParseError.reason
Remarks
String. The property is read-only. It displays a description of the error. Validation errors also include the URL of the schema and the node within the schema that corresponds to the error.
Example
The following example attempts to load an XML document. If it encounters a parse error, it uses the parse error object's reason property to display the reason the error occurred:
Dim xmlDoc
Set xmlDoc = CreateObject("microsoft.xmldom")
xmlDoc.async = False
xmlDoc.load("c:\books.xml")
If xmlDoc.parseError.errorcode <> 0 Then
MsgBox xmlDoc.parseError.reason
Else
MsgBox xmlDoc.documentElement.xml
End If
