I am new to C# and i am given vbscript to convert to "create xml file" in C#.

i don't understand Dim and how to interpret in C#. Can someone please provide Sample code for this.

Please help

Function FWC_UTL_XML_CreateXML(strPath)

'On Error Resume Next

Dim objDOM, objNode, objManager, objTester, objDeveloper, ObjHighLevel, objGrandChildNode

Dim strHighLevelInfoPath, strText, strNodes, strNodesScplit, strSplit, IntCount

' Create the main xml node

Set objDOM = CreateObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM")

' Set objNode = objDOM.createNode(7, "xml", "")

' objDOM.appendChild objNode

Set objNode = objDOM.CreateProcessingInstruction("xml-stylesheet", "type='text/xsl' href='XmlReference/LogReport.xsl'")

objDOM.InsertBefore objNode, objDOM.childNodes(0)

objDOM.AppendChild(objNode)

Set objNode = objDOM.createNode(1, "Root", "")

' Read the XML nodes from the Notepad

strHighLevelInfoPath = projectSuite.path & "Inputs\HighLevelInfo.txt"

strText = aqFile.ReadWholeTextFile(strHighLevelInfoPath, 20)

strNodes = "MachineName$%UserName$%Application$%TestingType$%OperatingSystem$%BuildVersion"

strNodesScplit = Split(strNodes, "$%")

' Split the string and add nodes

strSplit = Split(strText, "$%")

Set ObjHighLevel = objDOM.createNode(1, "HighLevelInfo", "")

Set objGrandChildNode = objDOM.createNode(1, strNodesScplit(0), "")

objGrandChildNode.Text = Sys.HostName

ObjHighLevel.appendChild (objGrandChildNode)

For IntCount = 1 to UBound(strSplit)

Set objGrandChildNode = objDOM.createNode(1, strNodesScplit(IntCount), "")

objGrandChildNode.Text = strSplit(IntCount)

ObjHighLevel.appendChild (objGrandChildNode)

Set objGrandChildNode = objDOM.createNode(1, "ExecuteDateTime", "")

objGrandChildNode.Text = Now

ObjHighLevel.appendChild (objGrandChildNode)

objNode.appendChild ObjHighLevel

objDOM.appendChild objNode

Set objNode = Nothing

Call objDOM.save(strPath)

Set objDOM = Nothing

End Function

The Dim statement is used for variable declaration and storage allocation for one or more variables. The Dim statement is used at module, class, structure, procedure or block level.
Syntax for variable declaration in VB.Net is:
[ < attributelist> ] [ accessmodifier ] [[ Shared ] [ Shadows ] | [ Static ]] [ ReadOnly ] Dim [ WithEvents ] variablelist
Where,
attributelist is a list of attributes that apply to the variable. Optional.
accessmodifier defines the access levels of the variables, it has values as - Public, Protected, Friend, Protected Friend and Private. Optional.
Shared declares a shared variable, which is not associated with any specific instance of a class or structure, rather available to all the instances of the class or structure. Optional.
Shadows indicate that the variable re-declares and hides an identically named element, or set of overloaded elements, in a base class. Optional.
Static indicates that the variable will retain its value, even when the after termination of the procedure in which it is declared. Optional.
ReadOnly means the variable can be read, but not written. Optional.
WithEvents specifies that the variable is used to respond to events raised by the instance assigned to the variable. Optional.
Variablelist provides the list of variables declared.

Hi,
In VB, Dim declares a variable of particular type.
"Dim myString As String" in VB is similar to "string myString" in c#
