I'm not sure what you're trying to do, but... If you want to return all the personname elements, try this:
/xnode:body/businessentity/contacts/contact/personname If you want to return all the xnode:body elements in which personname = "Miten Mehta", try this: /xnode:body[businessentity/contacts/contact/personname = "Miten Mehta"] If you're using the command-line tool, the namespace prefixes may cause you grief. See yesterday's discussion for workarounds.
