xml schema so can read xml file as recordset

[mrmovie]

good afternoon all, i have the following xml file

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<application command="configfile.xml" description="RM_AppX_V1.0_ML">
<feature name="core" criteria="nocriteria">
<task doesReboot="false" timeout="nnn" description="core appX install" criteria="nocriteria" sequenceid="noseq">
<command>%approotfolder%\_SOURCE\Core\core1.vbs</command>
<parameters>
<parameter>param1</parameter>
<parameter>param2</parameter>
</parameters>
</task>
</feature>

<feature name="feature2" criteria="nocriteria">
<task doesReboot="false" timeout="nnn" description="Feature2 GPO creation" criteria="nocriteria" sequenceid="noseq">
<command>%approotfolder%\_CUSTOM\Feature2\feature2_gpo.vbs</command>
</task>
<task doesReboot="false" timeout="nnn" description="Feature2 registry manips" criteria="nocriteria" sequenceid="noseq">
<command>%approotfolder%\_CUSTOM\Feature2\feature2_regmanips.vbs</command>
</task>
</feature>

<feature name="feature3" criteria="nocriteria">
<task doesReboot="false" timeout="nnn" description="Feature3 OUs creation" criteria="nocriteria" sequenceid="noseq">
<command>%approotfolder%\_CUSTOM\Feature3\feature3_gpo.vbs</command>
</task>
<task doesReboot="false" timeout="nnn" description="Feature3 start" criteria="nocriteria" sequenceid="noseq">
<command>%approotfolder%\_CUSTOM\Feature3\feature3_start.vbs</command>
</task>
</feature>
</application>

i can read this as a xmlDOM object but i want to bring this into an ADO recordset

i am using the following code in vbscript

Set xmlDoc = CreateObject("Microsoft.xmlDOM")
xmlDoc.Load("pathtoxmlfile")
Set oRS = CreateObject("ADODB.RecordSet")
oRS.Open xmlDoc

but am getting 'xml is incomplete or invalid " error on the oRS.Open xmlDoc
i take its because i dont have a DTD file or XML-Data file, can someone help me create one? and then tell me what i need to add to my actual xml files so taht they point to this??

Thanks
