am forming a xml format in the UI created in my form in SP2013. I am creating a xml file having elements and nodes, now I need to insert this dynamically generated xml file into a multi-line text column in my splist, how to achieve this. As far as I know, SPList doesn't have a xml column data type.

  • Does it matter? As long as you have selected plain text it should be fine.
