Plz check the xml file carefully,
because Same named Elements are repeted more than 2 times( In my xml it posible more than 2 also)

1) Here i need XPath Query To find "InvestmentAcco unt.Id" for follwing condition

InvestmentAccou nt.Id Where InvestmentAccou nt.Type="Post97 NonPR" and Contribution.So urce= "Employer "

2) To find ContributionLay er.StartDate for following condition

ContributionLay er.StartDate where Contribution.Id =ContributionLa yer.Id and
ContributionLay er.FMCStartDate ="2002-01-15" and
Contribution.Ne xtDueDate="2004-09-15"

Here ContributionLay er & Contribution are Same level Elements under
InvestmentAccou nt Node

Plz Send me XPath Query

[PLEASE READ] XPath query help

by: gfrommer | last post by:

Hello everyone, I've been reading through a bunch of XPath tutorials and am confused by a couple items. First, is it possible to have multiple predicates in my XPath statement. For example, the following xpath statement: "//AAA/BBB/c" should only return the last <c> node containing the 6, correct? Also consider the statement "//AAA/BBB" returns the first two <BBB> items, correct? the and's and or's in the predicates are all right yes?

Best approach for xpath on .NET 2.0

by: David Thielen | last post by:

Hi; I need to perform xpath queries on xml under .net 2.0 (ok if it won't run under 1.1). What is the approach that will give me the fastest code? These xpath queries will walk all over the xml - it is not a case where each query usually occurs further down the xml from the previous query. And there will tend to be a lot of queries on each dataset. --

XPath Question

The easy way to turn off automatic updates for Windows 10/11

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
