Also remember that you can have an entire path, not just one element, searched with the name() function:
"/*[name()='PostalCodeNumber']/*[name=()'ChildElem1']" I may not have the exact syntax correct, but you should get the gist of it.

Someone gave me this little gem which searches on the tag name: XmlSearch( GeoCodeXML, "//*[name()='PostalCodeNumber']" ) This will search for any tag anywhere with name PostalCodeNumber. Not sure if that will work or cause problems as it might return more than one node?? Not that great with Xpath. ........................
