 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

 	<Team name="Seagulls">
 		<Player name="Bob" position="1B" />
 		<Player name="Tom" position="2B" />
 	</Team>

To add a comment to the first team node:

Var xml As New XmlDocument(kXml)

// Create a Comment and assign it a value
Var xc As XmlComment
xc = xml.CreateComment("TestComment")
xc.Value = "This node contains team information."

// Add the Comment to the XML document
xml.DocumentElement.FirstChild.AppendChild(xc)

TextArea1.Value = xml.ToString
