XML creation XMLTextWriter vs MSXML

[JD]

Hi --

When I create an xml data stream using C# XMLTextWriter I can use
WriteStartElement/WriteElementString and WriteEndElement. Works great. Now
I'm trying to add elements to an existing piece of xml using C++ and MSXML.
And I'm have a difficult time creating elements and appending children to
accomplish the same as above 3 methods.

Tips appreciated.

Thanks,

Mike

Have you considered createElement and appendChild?

XMLTextWriter should be used for creating new documents, not updating
existing ones.
Try using XMLDocument. You can then easily use CreateElement to create and
AppendChild to add the element to it's parent structure.

Good luck.
