Sander,

Hey, thanks for the super quick response. I will give that a try.  My
question dealt with creating an element like:
<requestSummary xmlns="urn:expertmgmt">

I may need to use something like:
<xxx:requestSummary xmlns="urn:expertmgmt">

How would I be able to add the prefix 'xxx' to my elements?

Sorry for this double question but I forgot to add my this other
possibility.

Thanks again for your help - Peter
