Hi Subheer,
Such queries in MarkLogic look at entire fragments, in this case the whole userdetails xml. Easiest way out is to define user as fragment root within the admin interface. But you might also consider chopping userdetails and storing each user as a separate document. Kind regards, Geert *Van:* [email protected] [mailto: [email protected]] *Namens *Sudheer Yalaverthi *Verzonden:* donderdag 22 maart 2012 21:48 *Aan:* [email protected] *Onderwerp:* [MarkLogic Dev General] Problem in making use of cts:not-query() Hi Team, My sample XML would be like this. <userdetails> <user branch="CSE"> <id>111</id> <subjectList> <subject>C</subject> <subject>C++</subject> <subject>Oracle</subject> </subjectList> </user> <user branch="CSE"> <id>222</id> <subjectList> <subject>C++</subject> <subject>Oracle</subject> </subjectList> </user> <user branch="IT"> <id>333</id> <subjectList> <subject>C</subject> <subject>C++</subject> <subject>Oracle</subject> </subjectList> </user> </userdetails> I have a requirement where i should pick this Xml from the DB if there is a user entry with branch as"CSE" and id =222 and it should not have "C" as subject. If i write a additional query something like below for search:search() cts:element-query( xs:QName("user"), cts:and-query(( cts:element-value-query(xs:QName("id"), "222"), cts:element-attribute-value-query(xs:QName("user"), xs:QName("branch"), "CSE"), cts:not-query(cts:element-value-query(xs:QName("subject"), "C")) )) ) This is not turning me up the results. The only one scenario this query is gonna return back the result is if none of the users in the DB has the subject as "C". but this is not i am expecting. I know there is one user element which satisfies all the conditions and other user elements which fail these connditions. I want to retrieve the Xml even if one of the user element passes all these conditions irrespective of other elements pass or fail. Please suggest me. I am using search:search and i can not avoid this as i have some other requirements to sorting the result Xmls. Thanks, Sudheer
