Another XML Question

[Bryan Dickerson]

I'm just full of questions today!

Is there a better way to do this?

xNList =
xmlPO.SelectNodes("//SOAP-ENV:Body/PurchaseOrder/OrderBody/Item", xNSM)
For Each xNode In xNList
i = CType(xNode.Attributes.Item(0).InnerText, Short)
xChild = xmlPO.SelectSingleNode( _
"//SOAP-ENV:Body/PurchaseOrder/OrderBody/Item[@LineNumber='" & _
i.ToString & "']/Product[@IDType= 'Buyer']/ID", xNSM)
sVal = sVal & "Item Node LineNumber(" &
xNode.Attributes.Item(0).InnerText & _
") = Part Number: " & xChild.InnerText & vbNewLine
Next

Specifically, I'm getting a Node list before the For Each loop starts, but
within the loop I'm referencing the full path of the document to set xChild.
Can't I set xChild to a relative path from xNode? If so, then how would I
code that?

BTW, here's the XML, if that helps...

<SOAP-ENV:Envelope
xmlns:SOAP-ENV="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
<SOAP-ENV:Body>
<PurchaseOrder>
<OrderBody>
<Item LineNumber="1">
<Product IDType="Buyer">
<ID>NTMN34GA70</ID>
<Description>3904 CHARCOAL NORTEL PHONE SET</Description>
</Product>
<Quantity UOM="EA">14</Quantity>
<Amount>170</Amount>
</Item>
<Item LineNumber="2">
<Product IDType="Buyer">
<ID>NTMN35GA70</ID>
<Description>3905 CHARCOAL NORTEL PHONE SET</Description>
</Product>
<Quantity UOM="EA">3</Quantity>
<Amount>248</Amount>
</Item>
<Item LineNumber="3">
<Product IDType="Buyer">
<ID>NTMN18AA70N</ID>
<Description>3905 CHARCOAL NORTEL HANDSET</Description>
</Product>
<Quantity UOM="EA">3</Quantity>
<Amount>29</Amount>
</Item>
</OrderBody>
</PurchaseOrder>
</SOAP-ENV:Body>
</SOAP-ENV:Envelope>
