Need multiple XML file checker

[AndyH1]

As part of a project I have automatically generated a set of about 10K XML files. Some of these files may contain slight errors due to whitespace in the description tag and I need to find a tool which can run through the entire 10K of files and check them all, giving a list of those that fail as valid xml.

Can anyone suggest a tool (preferable cheap since this is a one off go) that I can use to carry out this validation.

Thanks in advance
Andy

Are they really not valid XML? Or are they just not formed 'correctly' for some user? If the latter, you could probably code up something relatively simple in XSLT, which is pretty much free, and run it from the command line. One such tool, which I think can be downloaded ready to go on many platforms, is xsltproc.
