Your doing something similar to me.
Advice - read up on DOM, xmlschema,
Data will be XML string, Must define some type of schema for all the names
you will be using with their attributes like type="date", Lenght=20, etc..
I am going to try to use an empty XML string that I can put data into, I
think this is the easiest approach
