Michael,
I checked and you are right, it is Smith &amp; Company.
Any ideas how I would retrieve this to display correctly?
Thanks,

Somewhere while being turned into XML, the string from the database is being
escaped, which isn't necessary as it's already escaped in the database. I
bet the XML built from the DB is actually Smith &amp; Company
