Instead of opening the News Flash program to make a change to your personal news items, open the text file News Flash creates and change the information located between the tags. Here’s an example from the lesson:

<?xml version=”1.0″?>
<rss version=”2.0″>
<channel>
<item>
<title>Board Meeting Tomorrow</title>
<author>Donna</author>
<pubDate>30 Jan 2009 11:33 am</pubDate>
<description>There will be a board meeting tomorrow in the main clubhouse at
2:00pm
</description>
</item>
</channel>
</rss>

Change the information between the red item tags.

To add additional information, copy the item tags, place beneath the existing item tags and modify for the new, additional information.

It saves a little time by editing the text file instead of opening the program.

BTW, be sure to use a Text Editor, not a word processor.

Have fun!
