Rendering the Ascii(0A) in the XML in Visual basic?

[Kelvin]

In Visual basic, the input textboxes uses 0x20 for vbCrLf the newline
character.
However, the newline is written in text as 0x10...

Is there any methods to ask MSXML30.DLL to solve this discrepancy
instead of painstakingly replacing Chr(10) with all the vbCrLf?

Thanks.

The .text property complies with the W3C XML specification, which requires
end of line normalization (converting CR LF into just LF). But the .xml
property returns the "unnormalized" text so that MSXML can round-trip a
document without losing it's original end of line format. So if you move to
the NODE_TEXT node, then use the .xml property you will get text that the
Windows text box is happier with. Then to update the field use the .text
property (since .xml is readonly).
