Hi Tracy,

thanks, I had been looking at that link, but I'm still having difficulties.

I have managed to get at the nodes I need (but again I'm not happy with the method I am using) and change the textof the node, but when I save it, the changed text does not save. Here's my code (you can find the XML further up in this thread), hopefully someone can help me work out a better way to do this:

oxml = CREATEOBJECT('Microsoft.XMLDOM')
oXML.async = .f.
oXML.load("c:\program files\mist 2006\reports\mistrep.exe.config")

loRows = oXML.DocumentElement.ChildNodes(3).ChildNodes
*!*	loRows = oXML.SelectNodes("applicationSettings")

FOR EACH loRow IN loRows
   ?loRow.ChildNodes(0).text
   loRow.ChildNodes(1).text = "test"
   ?loRow.ChildNodes(1).text
   ?loRow.ChildNodes(2).text
   ?loRow.ChildNodes(3).text

   ? "---------"
ENDFOR
m.loxml.save("c:\program files\mist 2006\reports\mistrep.exe.config")
RETURN

>>Thanks Sergey, will check it out. I've got it working using ALINES() and STRTOFILE() but think the code will break too easily if the XML structure is changed.
