IXMLDOMDocument::Save() with line breaks and indenting?   

How do you use MSXML2::IXMLDOMDocument::save() to include line breaks
and indents?

I don't think you can get the save method to indent. What you can do 
however is run an XSLT transformation to create an indentend document, 
then save that.
The XSLT stylesheet to do that is as easy as

<xsl:stylesheet
   xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform"
   version="1.0">

   <xsl:output method="xml" indent="yes"/>

   <xsl:template match="@* | node()">
     <xsl:copy>
       <xsl:apply-templates select="@* | node()"/>
     </xsl:copy>
   </xsl:template>

</xsl:stylesheet>

Apply that with transformNodeToObject to transform the DOM document you 
have to a new DOM document, then call the save method on the result.

A few months ago I asked a similar question and got a similar answer. I 
don't remember if there was more information in that thread but I know 
someone suggested use of a separate utility to reformat XML.
