Im working on a project that modifies a kml file by adding gps coordinates on a specific spot in the kml. My code, however, is adding the "gx" namespace on ALL of the elements when its saved at the end. I have researched and looked at a ton of different Visual Basic XML writing methods and I've ran out of ideas. How do I stop unnecessary namespaces to be added?!test.kml:\[code\]<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="yes"?><kml xmlns="http://www.opengis.net/kml/2.2" xmlns:gx="http://www.opengis.net/kml/2.2"> <Document> <name>test.kml</name> <Snippet>File Created Mon Jul 9 15:50:16 2012</Snippet> <Style id="multiTrack_n"> <IconStyle> <Icon> <href>http://maps.google.com/mapfiles/kml/shapes/track.png</href> </Icon> </IconStyle> <LineStyle> <color>99ffac59</color> <width>6</width> </LineStyle> </Style> <Folder> <Placemark> <name>test.kml</name> <styleUrl>#multiTrack_n</styleUrl> <gx:Track> <!--GPS Tracking data Points--> </gx:Track> </Placemark> </Folder> </Document></kml>\[/code\]Code:\[code\]Imports System.IOImports System.XmlImports System.DateTimeImports <xmlns="http://www.opengis.net/kml/2.2">Imports <xmlns:gx="http://www.opengis.net/kml/2.2">...Public Sub addCoordinate(ByVal lon As Double, ByVal lat As Double, ByVal att As Double, ByVal timeStamp As String) Dim currentDoc = XDocument.Load("test.kml") Try whenElement = _ <when><%= timeStamp %></when> coordElement = _ <gx:coord><%= lon.ToString %>,<%= lat.ToString %>,<%= att.ToString %></gx:coord> Dim testLocation = currentDoc.<kml>.<Document>.<Folder>.<Placemark>.Elements.Last() testLocation.Add(whenElement) testlocation.Add(coordElement) currentDoc.Save("test.kml") Catch ex As Exception Console.WriteLine(ex) End Try End Sub\[/code\]after code:\[code\]<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" standalone="yes"?><gx:kml xmlns="http://www.opengis.net/kml/2.2" xmlns:gx="http://www.opengis.net/kml/2.2"> <gx
