You're going to kick yourself ;-)
It looks like you forgot to double up the quotes in your XPath expression to
escape them from CF. Try this:
<CFSET del_node =
objXMLDOM.SelectSingleNode("/VFPData/r_stdpara[stdid=""#attributes.stdid#""]
")>

Subject: Error using MSXMLDOM
I'm experimenting with using the MSXMLDOM. I getting an error I cant get
around..
Here's the code
<!--- create instance of MSXMLDOM and load Referencedata.xml File --->
<cfobject type="com" name="objXMLDOM" class="Microsoft.XMLDOM"
action="create">
<cfset objXMLDOM.async = false>
<cfset
objXMLDOM.Load("c:\inetpub\wwwroot\xmledit\ReferenceDataWorking.xml")>
<!--- delete nodes in question --->
<CFSET del_node =
objXMLDOM.SelectSingleNode("/VFPData/r_stdpara[stdid="#attributes.stdid#"]")
>
<CFSET para_node = objXMLDOM.SelectSingleNode("/VFPData")>
<CFSET para_node.removeChild(del_node)>
<CFSET
objXMLDOM.SAVE("c:\inetpub\wwwroot\xmledit\ReferenceDataWorking.xml")>
<!--- end XML Delete --->
And here's the error
Invalid CFML construct found on line 20 at column 89.
ColdFusion was looking at the following text:
<p>#</p>
<p>The CFML compiler was processing:<ul><li>an expression beginning with
"objXMLDOM.SelectSingleNode", on line 20, column 35.This message is usually
caused by a problem in the expressions structure.
<li>a CFSET tag beginning on line 20, column 18.</ul>
The error occurred in
