Save as word to xml is splitting place holders ex: $abc.xyz$

[rameshalla]

Hi,

I have a word document with bunch of place holders like $abc.xyz$, after saving it as xml(Word To XML Document) the place holders are splitting up as below.

<w:r><w:rPr><w:rFonts w:cstheme="minorHAnsi"/></w:rPr><w:t>$</w:t></w:r><w:r w:rsidR="006D7D11"><w:rPr><w:rFonts w:cstheme="minorHAnsi"/></w:rPr><w:t>abc</w:t></w:r><w:r w:rsidR="00056AA1"><w:rPr><w:rFonts w:cstheme="minorHAnsi"/></w:rPr><w:t>.xyz</w:t></w:r><w:r><w:rPr><w:rFonts w:cstheme="minorHAnsi"/></w:rPr><w:t>]]</w:t></w:r></w></w:tc></w:tr>

Because of the place holder split, I am unable to replace the values programmatically.
Below are the name space I am seeing.
