Thanks for replying. It was a typo ... Also id fom example should be objid ... Anyway, without the typo, the result set is empty. There is also a weird thing: SELECT xpath_nodeset(rawdata, '/mydocument/body/chapter/contents/paragraph') FROM xmldocuments will output xpath_nodeset ---------------- (empty line) (empty line) (empty line) (empty line) 4 record(s) selected [Fetch MetaData: 0/ms] [Fetch Data: 1/ms] [Executed: 8/7/06 5:42:54 PM CEST ] [Execution: 3/ms] - (empty line) is what I wrote to say that there was nothing on output - which makes me think there is something wrong with XPath implementation. Anyway, is there a solution to my problems?
