XQuery as per W3C lacks the DML support; however, SQL Server "Yukon" (and
*may be* other products supporting XQuery from other vendors) provide DML as
an extension to XQuery. For instance, SQL Server "Yukon" supports what it
calls as XML DML, which is an extension to XQuery and it adds three keywords
insert, delete, and update (case-sensitive) in order to support DML used to
update variables/columns of data type 'xml'.

Hi,

   Anybody knows whether XQuery supports update. For example, a user can
write some XQuery statements to update an XML document. 

  Thanks!

Regards,
Shaorong
