    I got it, I found the bug.

    Original:

    function Get_Translate_Mgs_Static_File() // Get static file
{
if (Const_lib.Language== "it")
return Get_Translate_Mgs_Static_File = "c:\\DL Console\\messages.it.xtb"
else if (Const_lib.Language== "en_US")
return Get_Translate_Mgs_Static_File = "c:\\DL Console\\messages.xtb"

}


    Now work

     

    function Get_Translate_Mgs_Static_File() // Get static file
{
if (Const_lib.Language== "it")
return  "c:\\DL Console\\messages.it.xtb"
else if (Const_lib.Language== "en_US")
return  "c:\\DL Console\\messages.xtb"

}

I suspect that the problem is not in the function you posted but in another function.  The DOMDocument object does not actually open a file per se.  The "load" function loads it into memory and closes the file...the XML file is no longer open at that point (if my memory serves).

 

I suspect that your problem is in Get_Translate_Mgs_Static_File as that seems to be another custom function that is grabbing the actual file. If that is putting the file in use, that would be where the error could happen.

 

When you step through the code in the debugger, where does the error happen?  That would be my first step in figuring out whether or not my suspicions are correct.
