[Paraview] First trial file does not work-help!

[Moreland, Kenneth]

Did you type this in a text editor? The first thing I notice is that many of the quotes are the fancy open/close characters. Many text editors use a “smart quotes” feature that replaces the straight quote to a bent open or closed quote. The VTK reader only accepts the straight quotes (ASCII character 34).

    Hi,
    
    I am a new user of paraview and try to understand .vtu file format. 
    Just as a simple test I wanted to create two pieces one solely defines 4 points and a cell with no attributes, hence forming geometry only. And the second piece defines only points with point attributes.
    
    However, it seems I am doing something(s) wrong since paraview reader does not recognize the information. It would be great if somebody tells me what I am doing wrong. Afterwards I can take it off by myself I guess.
    
    Thanks a bunch!
