Example

The following VBScript example creates a new XMLDOMNode object, and then uses the appendChild method to append it to the document's list of children:

Dim xmlDoc
Dim root
Dim newNode
Set xmlDoc = CreateObject("Msxml2.DOMDocument")
xmlDoc.async = False
xmlDoc.load("c:\books.xml")
Set root = xmlDoc.documentElement
MsgBox root.xml
Set newNode = xmlDoc.createNode (1, "VIDEOS", "")
root.appendChild(newNode)
MsgBox root.xml
