Oh, well:( > You can navigate your way through the document using the XMLnavigate wrapper directly, although you will still need to hand-hold the exchange object to actually do any work importing or exporting to the document. Here's a code snippet that might help show a simple loop through the nodes of a DOM: cImpXMLNavigator &= cImpExch.getNavigator() cImpXMLNavigator.goToRoot() bImpXmlRet = cImpXMLNavigator.goToFirstChild() Loop If bImpXmlRet <> CPXMLErr:NoError Break End If cImpXMLNavigator.getNodeName() = 'Orders' cImpXMLNavigator.setXMLExchangeNode() ! Set the node back into the Exchange object bImpXmlRet = cImpExch.FromXML( cImpWrapperOD ) !And read in the set of OrderDetails for this order If bImpXmlRet <> CPXMLErr:NoError Message( 'An Error Occurred while Converting the XML Input. ' &| 'The error returned was: ' & bImpXmlRet,| 'Error Converting XML Output',| ICON:Hand, BUTTON:OK ) End End bImpXmlRet = cImpXMLNavigator.goToNextSibling() End cImpExch.Close() Tony Bowes
