Hi Kathy,

Without having seen much, I think that you - in your second expression - has no enclosing quotes.

Something like: /WorkFlow/Assembly/Station[@name=""" & strStation & """]/WI[1]/@doc should do the trick (if the whole is enclosed by " and " - it does not say in your examples).

Hope this helps

Sincerely
Ragulf Pickaxe

I know this is more of an xpath programming question, but I'm trying to use
a variable in place of a text string in an attribute value, but getting an
object error (asp.net).
This works:  /WorkFlow/Assembly/Station[@name="Label"]/WI[1]/@doc
This doesn't:  /WorkFlow/Assembly/Station[@name=" & strStation &
"]/WI[1]/@doc
I've tried several renditions...

If someone sees the obvious, I would appreciate hearing it.

Thanks again,

Kathy
