You can use forward slashes as directory separators, i.e.
my $config = XMLin('c:/windows/desktop/section-xml');

Your XML isn't well-formed. You are missing an outermost
tag that encompasses the whole document, i.e.
<document>
<record>
...
</record>
...
<record>
...
</record>
</document>
Add the tags and it'll work.
