body: <p>While loading XML file in a C# application, I am getting </p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>Name cannot begin with the '1' character, hexadecimal value 0x31.
    Line 2, position 2.</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>The XML tag begins like this.</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;version="1.0" encoding="us-ascii" standalone="yes" /&gt;
  &lt;1212041205115912&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I am not supposed to change this tag at any cost.</p>
  
  <p>How can I resolve this?</p>
