Microsoft DOM Objects Reference

XMLDOMElement

This object represents each element in the XML tree. The XMLDOMElement includes support for manipulating the element and the attributes associated with the element.

The attributes associated with an element are added and manipulated via the XMLDOMElement object.

Example

The following example returns the root element of the XML file from a DOMDocument:

Dim objDOMDocument As DOMDocument
Dim objXMLDOMElement As IXMLDOMElement
Set objDOMDocument = New DOMDocument
objDOMDocument.async = False
objDOMDocument.Load "http://localhost/xmlcode/people2.dtd"
Set objXMLDOMElement = objDOMDocument.documentElement
