Is there any way I can suppress this error. Instead of this ugly and long error, I would like to capture return code value($?) to determine success or failure
PS C:\> $str ="<p> Hi </p>"
PS C:\> $data = [xml]$str
PS C:\> $?
True
PS C:\>
PS C:\> $str ="<p> Hi <p>"
PS C:\> $data = [xml] $str
Cannot convert value "<p> Hi <p>" to type "System.Xml.XmlDocument". Error: "Unexpected end of file has occurred. The following elements are
not closed: p, p. Line 1, position 11."
At line:1 char:1
+ $data = [xml] $str

PS C:\> $data = [xml] $str 2> $null

Place a try catch around the command
try {$data = [xml] $str } catch {}
