What do you want to add a namespace for? If you want to use XPath
selection then use
xformsdoc.setProperty "SelectionNamespaces", "xmlns:xforms='" &
nameSpace & "'"

If you want to change the namespace of an element or attribute node you
cannot simply add a namespace, you need to recreate the node with the
proper namespace and replace the old node with the new node.
