Hi JOe,

Thanks for your speedy response.

In addition to your reponse, how can I create my child element without the
xmlns="" attribute?

TIA
Dwight

Use createNode, as already suggested:
loGovTalkEnvelope.createNode(1, "Child", "MyNameSpace")

You can't if you want to use a default namespace on Root but no namespace on
children.
You can give the Root a namespace prefix:
<myNs:Root xmlns:myNs="MyNameSpace"><Child>ChildText</Child></myNs:Root>
but you definitely need to undeclare the default namespace if you want it
just appling to the Root element. That's why the parser has added the
undeclaration in for you.

If you're not sure show me exactly how you want the document to look.
