>Where did you find documentation on using MSXML?

MSDN
Platform SDK
Data Access Services
Microsoft XML SDK

OR

MSDN
Platform SDK
Web Services
Web Workshop
XML

There was also a freebe CD passed out at some of the MSDN technical sessions that contained the XML SDK. That said, you still have to dig out the info by careful reading of the methods and properties descriptions. All samples are in Visual Basic or C++. Once you get over the hump it's pretty easy to use.

Sorry you have been exiled to Boston. If you're a good boy maybe they will let you come back to Texas soon. Regards.
