"There is an error in xml document" when running SCCM report

Out of the blue a handful of SCCM reports started throwing an error. These are related to software installed on clients and are supposed to provide a dropdown menu to choose software titles from. Reports that ask the user to type in a name are not affected. Furthermore, the reports that are having a problem when run from the SCCM console work fine if I run them in a browser connected the SQL Reporting Service - http://<reporting services server>/Reports.

The error is:

There is an error in XML document (1, 498284).

Microsoft.ConfigurationManagement.ManagementProvider.SmsException

Everything I've read indicates a non-standard character somewhere. Where do I look?

    Hi @Skip B, 

    1, What is the SSRS version you are using?

    Please provide an example report that is having problem. E.g. The name of the report that others can review their copy within their environment.
