Hi guys, I am trying to figure out how to write a select sql query for the xml data below. I cannot get the query to give me exactly whats displayed. Any help would be appreciated. The tables look like this

Orders, Products, and, Order Details which has the foreign key of OrderId and ProductId from the Products and Orders table.

<Orders>
<PurchaseOrder>
<OrderID>10248</OrderID>
<OrderDate>1996-07-04T00:00:00</OrderDate>
<OrderDetails>
<Item ProductID="11" UnitPrice="14.0000" Quantity="12" />
<Item ProductID="42" UnitPrice="9.8000" Quantity="10" />
<Item ProductID="72" UnitPrice="34.8000" Quantity="5" />
</OrderDetails>
</PurchaseOrder>
<PurchaseOrder>
<OrderID>10249</OrderID>
<OrderDate>1996-07-05T00:00:00</OrderDate>
<OrderDetails>
<Item ProductID="14" UnitPrice="18.6000" Quantity="9" />
<Item ProductID="51" UnitPrice="42.4000" Quantity="40" />
</OrderDetails>
</PurchaseOrder>
</Orders>

Try this.You can do it for the other columns in the xml


declare @x xml='<Orders> 
<PurchaseOrder> 
<OrderID>10248</OrderID> 
<OrderDate>1996-07-04T00:00:00</OrderDate> 
<OrderDetails> 
<Item ProductID="11" UnitPrice="14.0000" Quantity="12" /> 
<Item ProductID="42" UnitPrice="9.8000" Quantity="10" /> 
<Item ProductID="72" UnitPrice="34.8000" Quantity="5" /> 
</OrderDetails> 
</PurchaseOrder> 
<PurchaseOrder> 
<OrderID>10249</OrderID> 
<OrderDate>1996-07-05T00:00:00</OrderDate> 
<OrderDetails> 
<Item ProductID="14" UnitPrice="18.6000" Quantity="9" >tes </Item>
<Item ProductID="51" UnitPrice="42.4000" Quantity="40" /> 
</OrderDetails> 
</PurchaseOrder> 
</Orders>'

select x.i.value('../../OrderID[1]','varchar(40)'),
x.i.value('../../OrderDate[1]','varchar(40)'),
x.i.value('@ProductID','varchar(40)')
from @x.nodes('Orders/PurchaseOrder/OrderDetails/Item')x(i)
