I'm trying to import an XML into Task Scheduler using VB, so far I've gotten close (or at least I hope so) and have ended up with this as as my current output.

currently, when I import this to Task Scheduler, I get the error
C:\tests>schtasks /create /xml email.xml /tn testemail2
ERROR: The task XML is malformed.
(1,2)::
What's wrong with my syntax?
I'm using this VB script to write the XML, though, I don't think that its very prevalent... Also, it shouldn't matter what values it gets as long as they're vaguely correct.
