Create or replace a text node using VBScript

I'm at that interesting point where a little knowledge is a dangerous thing :) Though not new to XML, I'm new to using VB Script to manipulate it. I'm starting out with a script I found on the web, and trying to add to it to get it to do what I want it to do.

First, here's a sample XML fragment:

<SAVEIdeas>
   <SAVEIdea>
      <SAVE_ID>1</SAVE_ID>
      <date_submitted>1/13/04</date_submitted>
      <employee>Joe Anybody</employee>
      <empnum>12345</empnum>
      <location_/>
      <department/>
      <email1/>
      <idea>blah blah</idea>
      <implementation_steps/>
      <present_cost/>
      <new_cost/>
      <net_savings/>
      <cost_of_change/>
      <cost_frequency/>
      <who_makes_change/>
      <target_change_date/>
      <mgremail1/>
      <submission_type/>
      <status/>
      <supervisor_comments/>
   </SAVEIdea>
</SAVEIdeas>

<SAVEIdeas> is the root element.

Now, here's the VB Script I've got so far in a formhandler:

Set oSAVEIdeasDOM = Server.CreateObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM")
oSAVEIdeasDOM.async = false
oSAVEIdeasDOM.load server.mappath("/finance/save/fpdb/SAVEIdeas.xml")
If oSAVEIdeasDOM.parseError.ErrorCode <>0 Then
oSAVEIdeasDOM.loadXML "<SAVEIdeas/>"
End If
set oRoot = oSAVEIdeasDOM.documentElement
QUERY = "/SAVEIdeas/SAVEIdea[SAVE_ID = '" & SAVE_ID & "']"
Set currNode = oRoot.selectSingleNode(QUERY)

So now currNode contains the child which I want to update: the contents of the <supervisor_comments> tag.

I have captured supervisor comments from a form on another page and assigned them to the variable supervisor_comments. (Yes, the name of the tag and the name of the variable are purposely the same.) For the sake of this example, let's assume the contents of supervisor_comments = "Great idea!"

Now, I need to replace <supervisor_comments/> in the XML file with
<supervisor_comments>Great idea!</supervisor_comments>

I've tried a ton of stuff with replaceChild that doesn't work. Can anyone tell me what *will* work?

Thanks in advance--
