The changes you make are in-memory until you save them back to the xml data file. To do this, simply type:

ques.save "question.xml"

The next time you load the file, you'll get what you're looking for.

By the way, another property you're probably going to want to start setting is:

ques.async = false;
ques.setProperty "SelectionLanguage", "XPath";

this uses the W3C XPath spec instead of M$ backwards-compatibility with their own standard XPath. Save yourself some headaches .

Luck,

Ethan

After Appending to the XML file u have to save the XML file and then only u have to load it. u have to save it this way -
ques.Save ""

Good luck for u. U try this it would work.
