assigning variables

Thanks for all the help, just one last question on xml, using the following
code
DECLARE @.hDoc int
Declare @.RptType varchar(10)
Declare @.RptNo varchar(6)
EXEC sp_xml_preparedocument @.hDoc OUTPUT, @.TESTXML
Select * from OpenXML(@.hDoc, '//Header') with
(reportType varchar(10), reportNumber VarChar(6), batchNumber varchar(6),
reportSequenceNumber varchar(6), userNumber varchar(6) )
EXEC sp_xml_removedocument @.hDoc
when running this query, how can i assign the reportType to @.rptType and
reportNumber to @.RptNo
Peter,
You can try:
DECLARE @.hDoc int
Declare @.RptType varchar(10)
Declare @.RptNo varchar(6)
EXEC sp_xml_preparedocument @.hDoc OUTPUT, @.TESTXML
Select @.RptType = reportType, @.RptNo = reportNumber
from OpenXML(@.hDoc, '//Header') with
(reportType varchar(10), reportNumber VarChar(6), batchNumber
varchar(6),
reportSequenceNumber varchar(6), userNumber varchar(6) )
EXEC sp_xml_removedocument @.hDoc
... Of course, you won't be able to select the rest of the values along with
these variable assignments, so if you want a result set back you'll have you
re-select from OpenXML without the variables.
