to reference fn:image I believe you would do the same as when you want to preserve the case of a struct and use brackets and the name ie: XMLDoc["fn:image"].XMLText multiple child elements of the same name... thats kinda tricky but, it would be easy enough to select only the child nodes of a specific node with XMLSearch and specifying the relative path to the node ie: XMLSearch(thexml, "//parentnode/duplicatenodename")
XMLAttributes property will give you the attributes of a node... syntax is NodeName.XMLAttributes.attributeName -Steven On Tue, Jun 10, 2008 at 11:30 PM, Derrick Peavy < [EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I've been working with various XML documents, importing them and then > putting select data into a database.
