Hi,
First my name is Marian and I am from Romania.
I have a question, for me is complicated
I dont have any experience in xml/sql and I need some help to complete my project
I have a table named mytable with 3 columns
ID identity record
STATE XML record
STATUS boolean

And I have inserted in mytable 2 records
ID | STATE | STATUS |
=====================
1 | <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?> <ADD="False" SET="False" SN="123456"/> | true
2 | <?xml version="1.0" encoding="ISO-8859-1"?> <ADD="False" SET="False" SN="123457"/> | false

My question is :
How can I create a SELECT statment to return SN value from STATE record WHERE ID = 1 for example.

Thanks

The XML does not appear to be well-formed, so you cannot use SQL's XML features to query this data.

What kind of project is it? Is it an academic project? Consult the professor or person who gave you the XML data and ask them for well-formed XML.

If they are unable to provide you with well-formed XML, you should use string functions in SQL to parse it and get the data you need.

I would like to see the insert statement and the table create statement because for me it wasn't possible to insert that example data into an xml column...
