HOW DO WE DO IT USING VBSCRIPTING LANGUAGE

Assuming you have the basic knowledge to load XML using MSXML (if you don't download the MSXML 6.0 Core Components and install the SDK) then the steps are:

• Load the first document into a DomDocument, Dom1.
• Load the second document into a DomDocument, Dom2
• Create a copy of the desired node in the Dom2. If you're using MSXML 5.0 or greater use Set node = Dom1.ImportNode(Dom2.DocumentElement, true). If you are using a version lower than 5.0 use Set node = Dom2.DocumentElement.CloneNode(true).
• Append the copied node: Dom1.DocumentElement.AppendChild(node)

Hi Joe,
Thanks for your reply,
Actually we are trying to create xmls using QTPro9.0 testing tool which uses VBScript.
In that i followed the same steps but it didnt work it shows "GeneralError-identifier required" and points to the line -Dom2.DocumentElement.CloneNode(true).
Upto loading the document there was no problem.
we are using msxml4.0
ANy guesses why it is showing the error.

Post the VBScript you used.
