VB and xml help

[robvr6]

Hi all,

I got a vas t amount of information from here on my last project and cant thatnk those enough who helped. I am hoping for a little bit more.

I had some code that would write an xml file from the contents of a folder and this project is similar but the xml file is a bit different.

this is the code I am using to write the xml file currently

Private Sub Command2_Click()
 
 
    Dim f1 As Integer, songname As String, songpath As String, mp3path As String, f2 As Integer, i As Integer
    
    
    mp3path = "C:\PROGRAM FILES\Image text Editor\photos\"
    
     f2 = FreeFile
    Open mp3path & "mp3.txt" For Output As #f2       ' if you don't need mp3.txt take out
     f1 = FreeFile
     
    Open mp3path & "audiolist.xml" For Output As #f1
    Print #f1, "<?xml version=""1.0""?>"
    Print #f1, "<slides>"
    songname = Dir(mp3path & "\*.jpg")   ' get first track
    i = 1
    While Not Len(songname) = 0
        songpath = "<slidenode jpegURL=""" & mp3path & songname & """ title=""" & songname & """/> "
        Print #f1, songpath
        Print #f2, songname                  ' for mp3.txt
        Sleep 100                                ' slight pause, needed
        songname = Dir                         ' get next track
    
    Wend
    Print #f1, "</slides>"
 
 
Close
End Sub

I am trying to adapt this code to write the xml file like this

<?xml version=\"1.0\" encoding=\"UTF-8\"?>
<slides>

<slideNode jpegURL="photos/marylin.jpg">dokie</slideNode>
<slideNode jpegURL="photos/ragingwater.jpg">okie</slideNode>
</slides>

hope someone can help.

thanks in advance
Rob
