now, need create xml file this.
it requires me put things like
<reservation name="unique-name">
i have not found way add name="unique-name" part xml file. looking way this.
very easy using xdocument/xelement:
dim v xelement = <reservation/> 'or dim v xelement = xelement.parse("<reservation/>") 'or dim v xelement = xelement.load("pathtofile") v.setattributevalue("name", "unique-name") debug.writeline(v.tostring) 'prints <reservation name="unique-name" />
