How does the variable that contains Records/Record gain access to this data? Is it an external XML document accessed via the document function? Yes, the document function(). If I were to make an educated guess, it seems in this case you are desirous to obtain from the Records/Record/activity data-set, those 'activity' elements in which contains a text node who's string value is equal to the string value of the text node contained between the opening and closing activity element of the second data-set in which contains an attribute who's name is 'neccesary' and whos value is equal to = 'yes'. Yes, I am very desirous of this. In other words, you want to create an index with the second data set of only those elements in which contain a necessary attribute = 'yes'. ............... With the above index, you now want to parse through the first data set, and locate elements that contain the same string value, in this case 'Writing', outputting the result of this processing. Yes. If yes, then lets make sure you are operating on data that is a proper node-set instead of a RTF first, and move forward into understanding how to use keys to properly group and filter your data. Are you implying usage of the for-each loop?
