trigger OnOpenPage();
var
xmlDoc: XmlDocument;
xmlDec: XmlDeclaration;
xmlElem: XmlElement;
xmlElem2: XmlElement;
TempBlob: Record TempBlob Temporary;
outStr: OutStream;
inStr: InStream;
TempFile: File;
fileName: Text;
begin
xmlDoc := xmlDocument.Create();
xmlDec := xmlDeclaration.Create('1.0', 'UTF-8', '');
xmlDoc.SetDeclaration(xmlDec);
xmlElem := xmlElement.Create('root');
xmlElem.SetAttribute('release', '2.1');
xmlElem2 := XmlElement.Create('FirstName');
xmlElem2.Add(xmlText.Create('Max'));
xmlElem.Add(xmlElem2);
xmlDoc.Add(xmlElem);
// Create an outStream from the Blob, notice the encoding.
TempBlob.CreateOutStream(outStr, TextEncoding::UTF8);
// Write the contents of the doc to the stream
xmlDoc.WriteTo(outStr);
// From the same Blob, that now contains the XML document, create an inStr
TempBlob.CreateInStream(inStr, TextEncoding::UTF8);
// Save the data of the InStream as a file.
File.DownloadFromStream(inStr, 'Export', '', '', fileName);
end;
