[Year 12 SofDev] XML Files with VB

[CALUM MUNRO]

Hi All,

Thanks for your responses.

I have used the code Darren has posted to create my own version which uses
a record structure rather than a class.

I have attached a .zip file (gmail won't let me attach .zip files, so I
have renamed the file as a .doc - you will have to download the .doc file,
rename it to .zip and then extract.

The program reads in data from a text file (which is what my class has done
previously) and then writes it to an XML file.

Thanks again,

Calum
