[AccessD] XML Import Sample File

Try using XPATH  where syntax would  be "//SUBMITTING_PARTY/REQUEST/KEY/@*"
to move attributes into a collection that can be read.
or failing that just parse xmldoc.xml  for the attributes in partial xml 
string.

Sub xpathtest()
Dim strxml As String
Dim xmldoc As MSXML2.DOMDocument40
Dim nodes As MSXML2.IXMLDOMNodeList
Dim node  As MSXML2.IXMLDOMNode
Dim xmlError    As IXMLDOMParseError
Dim lngErrCode As Long

Set xmldoc = New MSXML2.DOMDocument40
    xmldoc.setProperty "SelectionLanguage", "XPath"
    xmldoc.async = False
    xmldoc.validateOnParse = False
   'xmldoc.resolveExternals = False
xmldoc.Load "C:\Access files\xmltests\Pria Path\pria.xml"
'
               lngErrCode = xmldoc.validate
           '  Debug.Print lngErrCode
            If xmldoc.parseError.errorCode <> 0 Then
                   Debug.Print " Reason: " & xmldoc.parseError.reason
                  Set xmlError = xmldoc.parseError
                   reportParseError xmlError
            End If
'xpath entity name case sensitive
'grab attributes with fee via XPath
Set nodes = xmldoc.selectNodes("//SUBMITTING_PARTY/REQUEST/KEY/@*")

'look through nodes collection
For Each node In nodes
    Debug.Print node.Text & " - " & node.nodeName
Next node

  Debug.Print xmldoc.xml
Set nodes = Nothing
Set xmldoc = Nothing
End Sub

Function reportParseError(err As IXMLDOMParseError)
  Dim s As String
  Dim r As String
  Dim i As Long
   s = ""
  For i = 1 To err.linepos - 1
    s = s & " "
  Next
  r = "XML Error loading " & err.url & " * " & err.reason
  Debug.Print r
    'show character postion of error; tired of counting
  If (err.Line > 0) Then
    r = "at line " & err.Line & ", character " & err.linepos & vbCrLf & _
         err.srcText & vbCrLf & s & "^"
  End If
  Debug.Print r
  End Function
