I am trying to achieve multi level grouping (actually two levels) of the
next XML.

I find the use of variables makes multi-level grouping of any depth quite easy.


How can I achieve this?

I hope the example below helps. Note how I create a variable at each level of only those in the subgroup, making it quite straightforward.


I hope this helps.
