Excel Print command, creating text template - templates

Question

Hi I am new to VBA and was looking to output my Excel sheet data into a text template. So far all I have been able to do is output the data but I don't know where to go from there. What I have:
Private Sub CommandButton1_Click()
Dim myFile As String, rng As Range, cellValue As Variant, i As Integer, j As Integer
myFile = "C:\Users\Francis\Desktop\redirect.txt"
Set rng = Selection
Open myFile For Output As #1
For i = 1 To rng.Rows.Count
For j = 1 To rng.Columns.Count
cellValue = rng.Cells(i, j).Value
If j = rng.Columns.Count Then
Print #1, cellValue
Else
Print #1, cellValue,
End If
Next j
Next i
Close #1
End Sub
I wish to change this so the text output isn't just "celldataA*" "celldataB*" etc.
I want to make it so that the document starts with
<rule> and ends with </rule>
Then each row would come out as
<rule name="Rule rownumber*" patternSyntax="ExactMatch" stopProcessing="true">
<match url="celldataA*" />
<action type="Redirect" url="celldataB*" />
</rule>
Any pointers? It's that or I manually do it myself 3.5k times so any help at all is welcome.

These resources on generating XML from Excel should help you.
MS Office.Com: Create an XML data file and XML schema file from worksheet data
MSDN Library: Creating an XML Mapping Schema in Excel 2010
Mr Excel: Using XML in Excel 2003
essentially you create a schema file then output the xml data using that schema to define the data.
