Hi JohnFish,
Sorry I would describe more detail:
XML document need to display in a format has some tags I want, then I could retrieve data from this XML dodument later:
ie.
<Cusomer List>
<CustomerID>
<CustomerName>
<CustomerAddress>
</Customer List>

ie.
<Cusomer List>
<CustomerID>
<CustomerName>
<CustomerAddress>
</Customer List>
using the recordset to save to an XML file, it saves in the XML format, using the name of the fields...
<nameoftable>
<Field1>value</Field1>
<Field2>value</Field2>
<FieldN>value</FieldN>
</nameoftable>
i believe that that is the format... let me know if Im still missing the point!
<nameoftable>
<Field1>value</Field1>
<Field2>value</Field2>
<FieldN>value</FieldN>
</nameoftable>

Could you explain more detail? Do you mean the code like:
Dim str as string
str = "<nameoftable>"
....
Anyway, the tag name and the field names are different
is. ID vs CustomerID
Name vs CustomerName
Address vs CustomerAddress
thanks

With a text editor, take a look at the XML code generated after running this program:
--------------------------
1. Start a New Standard.Exe Project.
2. Add a DataGrid (DataGrid1) to Form1.
3. Set a reference (VB Menu -> Project -> References) to "Microsoft ActiveX Data Objects 2.1 Library"
4. Copy/Paste the following into the Form1 code window.
5. Change strFilePath to a temporary testing file path / name.
6. Change strFileXML to a temporary testing file path / name.
7. Press F5 to run. The datagrid will be filled with the test data and the test data will be saved as an XML file to strFileXML.

Thanks WSH,
But I want the output of XML document should have the format similar:
i.e
<Cusomer List>
<CustomerID>Id</CustomerID
<CustomerName>Name</Custom
<CustomerAddress>Address</
</Customer List>

take a look at http://www.w3schools.com/xml
You get a quick tutorial of DOM,
including appending and creating an XML document.
Real easy and fast.
Just download the MS-XML3 (or is it 4 already?).
Add it to your references and start coding away.
Another good source is http://www.vbxml.com
Good Luck, Moshe

WSH,
With your codes, I cannot view the output XML document, i got an error when tried to display it:
A name contained an invalid character. Line 1, Position 14
To mflam,
In the first website, I cannot find MS-XML3 to download. Could you tell me where it is?
Thanks

The missing variable, is because you forgot to add a Datagrid to Form1. Please follow the 8 instructions below, and everything will work.
1. Start a New Standard.Exe Project.
2. Add a DataGrid (DataGrid1) to Form1. (Vb Menu -> Project -> Components -> Microsoft DataGrid Control).
3. Add a Textbox (Text1) to Form1. Set the Multiline property to True and the Scrollbars property to 2-Vertical.
4. Set a Reference (VB Menu -> Project -> References) to "Microsoft ActiveX Data Objects 2.x Library"
5. Copy/Paste the following into the Form1 code window.
6. Change strFilePath to a temporary testing file path / name.
7. Change strFileXML to a temporary testing file path / name.
8. Press F5 to run. The datagrid will be filled with the test data and the test data will be saved as an XML file to strFileXML AND displayed in the Textbox.

nguyenn, I hacked this together in access but you should be able to convert it to VB easily. It gets the recordset from the table and then writes the output to an xml file.
Function createXML()
On Error GoTo Err_createXML
Dim RS As DAO.Recordset
Dim strQuery As String
Dim hFile As Integer
Dim sFilename As String
Dim i
strQuery = "SELECT * FROM tCustomer"
Set RS = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset(st
'obtain the next free file handle from the system
hFile = 1
sFilename = "C:\demo.xml"
'open and save the textbox to a file
Open sFilename For Output As #hFile
Print #hFile, "<CustomerList>" & vbCr
'nguyenn - you need to put check code here just in case there are no records
'loop here
RS.MoveLast
For i = 0 To RS.RecordCount - 1
Print #hFile, "<CustomerID>" & RS.Fields("ID") & "</CustomerID>" & vbCr
Print #hFile, "<CustomerName>" & RS.Fields("Name") & "</CustomerName>" & vbCr
Print #hFile, "<CustomerAddress>" & RS.Fields("Address") & "</CustomerAddress>" & vbCr
Next
'end loop
Print #hFile, "</CustomerList>"
Close #hFile
Set RS = Nothing
Exit_createXML:
Exit Function
Err_createXML:
Select Case Err.Number
Case Else
MsgBox "Error number: " & Err.Number & ". " & Err.Description
End Select
Resume Exit_createXML
End Function
hope this helps

Go to project -> references, and make sure "Microsoft ActiveX Data Object 2.0" is checked. Now try this:
Private Sub Command1_Click()
Dim cn as adodb.connection
Dim rs as adodb.recordset
set cn = new adodb.connection
set rs = new adodb.recordset
cn.open "YourConnectionString"
set rs.ActiveConnection = cn
rs.open "SELECT * FROM MyTable"
'Save to XML file
rs.Save "C:\XML\Customer.XML", adPersistXML
End Sub
if you are already connected to your database, skip the first few lines, and just use the Save line. Im not sure my code is 100% accurate as I havent used ADO recently... Hope it helps!
