Do you want to comment out the contents of the field, or the start and end tags too?
If the file is regularly formatted, the sed scripts by Annihilannic will work (perhaps with some minor modifications if you want to keep the start and end tags and just comment out the contents). If the file is free-form, perhaps you should look into XSLT.

mkdoc::xml::decode
MKDoc::XML::Decode(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation MKDoc::XML::Decode(3pm)
NAME
MKDoc::XML::Decode - Expands XML entities
SYNOPSIS
use MKDoc::XML::Decode;
my $decode = new MKDoc::XML::Decode qw/xml xhtml numeric/;
# $xml is now "Chris' Baloon"
my $xml = MKDoc::XML::Decode->process ("Chris' Baloon");
SUMMARY
MKDoc::XML::Decode is a very simple module with pluggable entity decoding mechanism. At the moment there are three modules:
xml - Decodes ' " > < and & xhtml - Decodes XHTML entities such as é numeric - Decodes numeric entities
such as A
That's it.
This module and its counterpart MKDoc::XML::Encode are used by MKDoc::XML::Dumper to XML-encode and XML-decode litterals.
API
my $decode_object = new MKDoc::XML::Decode (@modules);
Constructs a new decode object using the modules specified in @modules.
my $decoded = $decode_object->decode ($stuff);
Decodes $stuff and returns it into $decoded.
Any entity which is not recognized will be returned as is but will trigger a warning.
