本文所舉的例子與保存HTML格式資料至XML類似。在以往當表格被提交後，我們通常會建立一個新的文檔，現在只要文檔已經存在，那麼直接新增就可以了。此種技術的使用與創建基本數據類似。
在前面的文章裡，我已經示範如何使用XMLDOM。因此，我們可以直接進入本文的範例。
我們需要考慮的第一件事是我們將用於新增"記錄"的HTML 表單。在"將HTML表單資料儲存至XML"範例中我們已使用過此表單，只是更改了檔案名，但程式碼是相同的。
AddContact.html:
<html> <head> <title> Contact Information </title> </head> <body> <form action="processAdd.asp" method="post"> <h3>Enter your contact information</h3> First Name: <input type="text" id="firstName" name="firstName"><br> Last Name: <input type="text" id="lastName" name="lastName"><br> Address #1: <input type="text" id="address1" name="address1"><br> Address #2: <input type="text" id="address2" name="address2"><br> Phone Number: <input type="text" id="phone" name="phone"><br> E-Mail: <input type="text" id="email" name="email"><br> <input type="submit" id="btnSub" name="btnSub" value="Submit"><br> </form> </body> </html>
我們設定此HTML表單是來處理ADD。 ASP的。這裡的ASP 頁面具有偵測XML.檔案及ROLODEX.XML是否存在的功能。如果它們確實存在，ASP則會在檔案上附加新的條目，如果檔案不存在，則需要建立。

如果你已經讀過關於"將HTML 表單資料保存至XML格式"的文章，你會注意到附加到將HTML資料擴展到XML檔案的程式碼與HTML資料擴展到XML格式"的文章，你會注意到附加到將HTML資料擴展到XML檔案的程式碼與HTML資料擴展到XML格式"的文章，你會注意到附加到將HTML資料擴展到XML檔案的程式碼與HTML資料擴展到XML格式"新文檔的程式碼基本上是一致的。但這裡還是有兩個主要的不同點：
'Call the Load Method of the XMLDOM Object. The Load Method has a
'boolean return value indicating whether or not the file could be
'loaded. If the file exists and loads it will return true, otherwise,
'it will return false.
blnFileExists = objDom.Load(strXMLFilePath & "\" & strFileName)
'Test to see if the file loaded successfully.
If blnFileExists = True Then
'If the file loaded set the objRoot Object equal to the root element
'of the XML document.
Set objRoot = objDom.documentElement
Else
'Create your root element and append it to the XML document.
Set objRoot = objDom.createElement("contact")
objDom.appendChild objRoot
End If 本節的程式碼來自addNewContacttoXML 功能。因為我們不可能每次都新建一個文件，所以我們改為保存CONTACT。如果能夠LOAD此文件呢，我們則獲得了這個XML文件的根元素；如果不能夠呢，那麼我們就假設它不存在並創建一個新的要元素並將它附加到XML文件上。
另一個主要區別在於：當我們對文件進行二次檢測，是否成功的LOAD，這樣我們可以決定是否需要加上 一條處理指令。如果檔案存在，我們就不需要加上這條指令。但是，如果建立了一個新的文件，那麼一定要加上這條處理指令。
'Check once again to see if the file loaded successfully. If it did
'not, that means we are creating a new document and need to be sure to
'insert the XML processing instruction.
If blnFileExists = False then
'Create the xml processing instruction.
Set objPI = objDom.createProcessingInstruction("xml", "version='1.0'")
'Append the processing instruction to the XML document.
objDom.insertBefore objPI, objDom.childNodes(0)
End If 除開以上兩點不同之處外，你可以發現 保存資料至新檔案的程式碼實際上是與 附加新record至存在檔案的程式碼是一樣的。我們創建一個新的element, contact CONTAINER，以便能容下每個新添的RECORD。程式碼將會在Form Collection of the Request Objec中不斷重複以建立適合的XML節點並將這些節點值設定得與目前Form Field.相同。
