You shouldn't be physically writing the Product XML. You should be filling out the Product ID, Product Title, etc. fields through the Product Manager in the AdminCP - and then Exporting the Product XML.

and what should i write in product id?

How about the name of your product?

eg:-
this_is_my_product_a
or
this_is_my_product_b

Something like that.

It should be something unique to you. For example in all my modifications I prefix the product id with "kirky_".

In the past I have always used paulm_yyyymmdd - I'm not sure what I'm going to use for 3.7 yet.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
