Hi Ron.

The "form1" node represents a cursor and "textfield1" represents a field. What you're missing is level of node that represents a record. For example:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<form1>
	<record>
		<TextField1>Ron</TextField1>
		<TextField2>Duvall</TextField2>
		<NumericField1>5670.00000000</NumericField1>
	</record>
</form1>
