nodeValue Property

Contains the text associated with the node.

objValue = oXMLDOMNode.nodeValue;
objXMLDOMNode.nodeValue = objValue;

HRESULT get_nodeValue(
  VARIANT* value
);
HRESULT get_nodeValue(
  VARIANT value
);

General Remarks

This value depends on the value of the nodeType property.

Value Description
NODE_ATTRIBUTE Contains a string representing the value of the attribute. For attributes with subnodes, this is the concatenated text of all subnodes with entities expanded. Setting this value deletes all children of the node and replaces them with a single text node containing the value written.
NODE_CDATA_SECTION Contains a string representing the text stored in the CDATA section.
NODE_COMMENT Contains the content of the comment, exclusive of the comment's start and end sequence.
NODE_DOCUMENT, NODE_DOCUMENT_TYPE, NODE_DOCUMENT_FRAGMENT, NODE_ELEMENT, NODE_ENTITY, NODE_ENTITY_REFERENCE, NODE_NOTATION Contains Null. Note that attempting to set the value of nodes of these types generates an error.
NODE_PROCESSING_INSTRUCTION Contains the content of the processing instruction, excluding the target. (The target appears in the nodeName property.)
NODE_TEXT Contains a string representing the text stored in the text node.

This property is read/write, and applies to the following objects and interfaces:

IXMLDOMAttribute, IXMLDOMCDATASection, IXMLDOMCharacterData, IXMLDOMComment, DOMDocument, IXMLDOMDocumentFragment, IXMLDOMDocumentType, IXMLDOMElement, IXMLDOMEntity, IXMLDOMEntityReference, IXMLDOMNode, IXMLDOMNotation, IXMLDOMProcessingInstruction, IXMLDOMText, and IXTLRuntime.
