How to get Name of xsl:variable in VB

[bbuk]

Hi
I am just dipping into xml for one project so I hope an expert here can help me. I need to produce a VB6 prog to edit an existing .xsl file, which is part of a much bigger project, allowing the user to input his address details. The xsl file consists of many lines of comment then the active lines like:

<xsl:variable name=&quot;Address1&quot;>1</xsl:variable>

I want to replace the 1 with a cdata statement that the user enters. So far so good. My problem is that I can read the value of each variable using MSXML.DOMDocument, but I cannot read the variable name - i.e. &quot;address1&quot; , &quot;address2&quot; etc.

Any suggestions welcome - I'm sure I am missing something very obvious

I think you have.. the variable's address1 value is actually stored as an attribute. The attributes identifier is, er, name You should be able to retrieve the attribute from the variable node in the same way you retrieve any attribute from any xml node.

MSXML.DOMDocument has some functions that allow you to get the attributes from the xml document. Look them up in MSDN
