I'm calling a web service within my orchestration that returns a xml.documen
t.

This is what it returns:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>
- <MainFrameOutput>
<Field>PASSED SECURITY</Field>
<Field>INFO - SIGNON ACCEPTED</Field>
</MainFrameOutput>

But depending on the message, it could have more "Field" nodes.  Now I'm
thinking I'll be using a loop and getting the childnode count to control the
loop.  But how do I get the value in the "Field" node.

I've tried "varstring = xpath(msg,  "string(/*/field[1])");".  But it
returns a space.

Did you try :

xpath(msg,  "string(//Field[1])");

Or

xpath(msg,  "string(Field[1])");


In your message your elements are called -> Field but in
your xpath it is -> field
Maybe just a typo but the statments are case sensitive.


Also look here for some xpath examples :

Thank you so much.  I tried the first one and it worked.

I think your first post might have worked if you changed the lower case f to
upper case F.
