Dear everybody
I am new in XML, I want to write a program to write in an xml file in this format:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>  
- <Orders>
  <Item id="1" SKU="998123" Description="Super Widget" Quantity="100" />
  <Item id="2" SKU="81312" Description="Turbo Flangellator" Quantity="50" />
  </Orders>

but when I execute the code the xml file appeared like the following:

- <Orders>
  <Item id="1" SKU="998123" Description="Super Widget" Quantity="100" />
  <Item id="2" SKU="81312" Description="Turbo Flangellator" Quantity="50" />
  </Orders>

what should I do to let it write the encoding line?


my code is:

Dim xmlWriter As New XmlTextWriter("c:\XMLTextWriter.xml", Nothing)

With xmlWriter
    .WriteStartElement("Orders")
    .WriteStartElement("Item")
    .WriteAttributeString("id", "1")
    .WriteAttributeString("SKU", "998123")
    .WriteAttributeString("Description", "Super Widget")
    .WriteAttributeString("Quantity", "100")
    .WriteEndElement()

    .WriteStartElement("Item")
    .WriteAttributeString("id", "2")
    .WriteAttributeString("SKU", "81312")
    .WriteAttributeString("Description", "Turbo Flangellator")
    .WriteAttributeString("Quantity", "50")
    .WriteEndElement()


    .WriteEndElement()
    .Close()
End With
