Syntax
oXMLDOMCharacterData.deleteData(offset, count)
Parameters
offset
Long integer value specifying the offset, in characters, at which to start deleting string data.
count

If the offset and count of characters specify a range beyond the end of the string, this method deletes only to the end of the string.
The length property is updated by this operation.
Example
The following VBScript example creates an XMLDOMComment object and uses the deleteData method to delete the last six characters:
Dim xmlDoc
Dim comment
Set xmlDoc = CreateObject("microsoft.xmldom")
xmlDoc.async = False
xmlDoc.load("c:\books.xml")
Set comment = xmlDoc.createComment("Hello World!")
comment.deleteData 6, 6
MsgBox (comment.xml)
