Could anyone tell me how to add a namespace to msxml2.domdocument40class object.
I tried

String nameSpace = "http://www.w3.org/2002/xforms";
msxml2.domdocument40class xformsdoc;
xformsdoc.namespaces.add("xforms",nameSpace);
But it doesn't work.
Could anyone tel me how it works?

What do you want to add a namespace for? If you want to use XPath
selection then use
xformsdoc.setProperty "SelectionNamespaces", "xmlns:xforms='" &
nameSpace & "'"

If you want to change the namespace of an element or attribute node you
cannot simply add a namespace, you need to recreate the node with the
proper namespace and replace the old node with the new node.
