Parsing XML With VBScript

I have googled until I can google no more. I have also searched through this forum and think I'm getting close. I really hope you guys can help me out here.
 
I am trying to send a GET request to another site and use certain values from the returned XML. I would like to assign those values to variables for later processing.
 
I have tried using:

 Server.CreateObject("Msxml2.ServerXMLHTTP")
 objHttp.open "GET", http://example.com, false
 objHttp.setRequestHeader "Content-type", "application/x-www-form-urlencoded"
 objHttp.Send
 Response.ContentType = "text/xml"
 Response.Write (objHttp.responseXML.xml)
 

 
This will display the actual XML to the web page. I cannot find any info on how to use the values from that XML. So, I then saved an xml file to my server and tried this I found at DevGuru:
 

 Set objXMLDoc = CreateObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM") 
 objXMLDoc.async = False 
 objXMLDoc.load("myxmlfile.xml") 
 
 Set Node = objXMLDoc.documentElement.selectSingleNode("Artist/Name") 'these are the actual nodes in the xml file
 response.write(Node.text)
 

 
The second code block gets me nothing...no errors - just a blank web page.
 
My first question is which direction should I even start? The first code block or the second (assuming I can "GET" the XML data from another server using this method)?
 
Next, is how do I assign the xml values to a variable?
 
Any help would be so much appreciated.

After browsing around DevGuru some more, I was able to find a link to the following:
http://www.dotnetindex.com/articles/8053_Simple_XML_RSS_Parser.asp
 
I decided to give that code a try and lo and behold, I started getting results.
 
To fine tune the code, I then began using this guide:
http://www.devguru.com/Technologies/xmldom/quickref/xmldom_index.html
 
So far so good. I'm far from finished and may need to ask you guys some questions as I progress along.
 
Hope everyone has a great weekend!

Here's an excellent XML tutorial:
