Printing to file in for loop using Batch Script-CodePudding

I am trying to write to xml file using a batch script, however it only writes the last loop to the file. The variable Project_Choice is just two comma separated strings. It prints to the console correctly, however writes only the last loop in the xml file.Where am I going wrong?

for %%i in (%Project_choice%) do (                            
                                           echo(^<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-16" ?^>
                                           echo(^<testConfiguration^>
                                           echo(^<TestEvents^>
                                           echo(^<TestEvent^>%%i^</TestEvent^>
                                           echo(^</TestEvents^>
                                           echo(^</testConfiguration^>
                                                                                                                                      
                                            
                                           )> C:\cijobscript\Test.xml

-- OR --

use

(for .... do (echo....))>filename

to create a new file

Note here the for command itself is within parentheses.
