Dear Pat
You need to parse the file with a validating parser - such as MSXML
(included in Internet Explorer) or Xerces - which will check the file
against the DTD. You should find this link is a good starting point:
http://www.w3schools.com/dtd/dtd_validation.asp
Do you have a preferred parser, programming language or platform? This
would help list members to recommend tools.
kind regards
Steve Baker
