Thanks for the quick response.  Here is the code I am using to manually
write to the file is:

    outFile = open("record.xml", 'w')
    outFile.write = ("<?xml version=\"1.0\"?>\n")
    outFile.write = ("<?xml-stylesheet type=\"text/xsl\"
href=\"test.xsl\"?>\n")
    outFile.write = ("<!DOCTYPE BobActivityLog SYSTEM \"test.dtd\">\n")
    outFile.close()

When I run the code I get the following error message:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "bob-xml.py", line 189, in <module>
    main()
  File "bob-xml.py", line 173, in main
    outFile.write = ("<?xml version=\"1.0\"?>\n")
AttributeError: 'file' object attribute 'write' is read-only

What am I doing wrong here?  If anyone could help that would be
appreciated.  Thanks again.


Craig
