Anthony, Yes we're using ServerXMLHTTP.  What I want to do though is to take 
the contents of what I've already opened from a file using...
set xml = Server.CreateObject("Microsoft.xmlDOM")

xml.async = false

xml.load(Server.MapPath("Hit-Response.xml"))

...and write the entire document to a database table. The field in the 
database should then contain <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" 
?><Response Version="1.1" ReportDate="2007-07-31" 
TransactionID="fitu0goACqQAACLtbbsAAAAC" StatusCode="1" 
ClientReferenceNumber="987654321" StatusDescription="Success">...all other 
child nodes...</Response>
