ok so using those 15seconds instructions i have this.

Set objXML = Server.CreateObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM")
Set objLst = Server.CreateObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM")
objXML.async = False

objXML.Load (wsResponse)
If objXML.parseError.errorCode <> 0 Then
End If
Set objLst = objXML.getElementsByTagName("*")
For i = 0 to (objLst.length - 1)
       If objLst.item(i).nodeName = "update-status" Then
              StrDate = objLst.item(i).text
       response.write "***" & StrDate & "*<br>"
Exit For
       End If
Next

i dont get the response.write results.
Can you see what i'm doing wrong?
