Document.toString

Question

Given the following XML message represented by a Document object, document..toString() is returning:
[Document: [DocType: <!DOCTYPE GTP001O>
], Root is [Element: <GTP001O/>]]
File "[Document: [DocType: <!DOCTYPE GTP001O>
], Root is [Element: <GTP001O/>]]" not found.
Here is the XML Message represented by my Document object:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<GTP001O>
<C261>GTP001O</C261>
<BDT>
<C1>001</C1>

I thought calling doc.toString() would give me the above String representation of my XML message.
Why is it returning the following:
[Document: [DocType: <!DOCTYPE GTP001O>
], Root is [Element: <GTP001O/>]]
File "[Document: [DocType: <!DOCTYPE GTP001O>
], Root is [Element: <GTP001O/>]]" not found.
Thanks

Hi,
I think calling doc.toString() would not be the right thing to do here
instead you retrieve an Element from the document and get that element's
text...I think that would be feasible....here is the code how to retrieve text from the element
try
               NodeList loDOBList = foXmlDocument.getElementsByTagName("Node Name");
                                   Node n = loDOBList.item(index no of the element);
                    n = n.getFirstChild();
                    String lsValue = n.getNodeValue();
                    return n.getNodeValue();
          catch(Exception e)
               throw e;
