Writing out a large document in fragments

[Slusser, Ted]

Hello,   I’d like to read data from some source and write out a single large XML document.  I want to write out the elements as they are being processed.  The problem I am running into is that I have to write the root elements “by-hand” and then write the XmlObject using the xmlText to convert it to a string.  When writing the root element I have to hard-code the namespaces, etc.  Is there some way to tell XML beans that I want to write an opening tag of a document but not the closing tag?   Thanks,   Ted Slusser   The information in this electronic mail message is Cendant Confidential and may be legally privileged.
