I'm writing a vb or vbscript program that uses the DOM to remove nodes in an XML file. I need to remove all the data between the two comment lines (see below), <!-- Start xxxx.Net --> and <!-- End xxxx.Net --> but the program errors when it hits the comment syntax. <! -->. I'm able to use "getElementsByTagName" or "selectNodes" for other nodes (like <appsettings> below) , but not for comments. It doesn't recognize the node even if I Dim it as IXMLDOMComment. Can anyone help me with this? example XML file <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?> <configuration> <appSettings> <!-- Start xxxx.Net --> <!-- ServerType, PartnerAPI = 2, CorbisInternal = 1 --> <add key="ServerType" value="1"/> <!-- Framework --> <add key="xxxxOne.Validations.ValidationConstructString" value="CONNECTIONSTRING=data"/> <!-- End xxxx.Net --> </appSettings> Dominica DeGrandis 206.373.6225 DH m,t,th,f 425.844.8477 HM w
