Why do you need to add a header? Would it not be easier to create a document, then add nodes to it? In this case, it will already have the header in place. - Neolisk
@Neolisk its not adding the header automatically. for my stuff I need to add it. - istiaq2379

Dim xmlDoc As New XmlDocument()
xmlDoc.AppendChild(.CreateXmlDeclaration("1.0", "utf-8", Nothing))
