Format.Indented writing xml doc 1

[mrmovie]

Hi All,
am getting to know the DOM object better!
pulling me hair out today,
want to write an xml file and would like it to look nice and indented etc

i have seen vb.net code like

// Create the XmlDocument.
XmlDocument doc = new XmlDocument();
doc.LoadXml("<item><name>wrench</name></item>");

// Add a price element.
XmlElement newElem = doc.CreateElement("price");
newElem.InnerText = "10.95";
doc.DocumentElement.AppendChild(newElem);

// Save the document to a file and auto-indent the output.
XmlTextWriter writer = new XmlTextWriter("data.xml",null);
writer.Formatting = Formatting.Indented;
doc.Save(writer);


wnat to do something similar but cnat figure out how to create the XmlTextWriter object.
can anyone help out with this please?
cheers
rich

I doubt that you can. XmlTextWriter is part of the .Net framework and as far as I know there is no way to use it from VBScript. Having said that, it wouldn't be terribly hard to write one yourself.
