Hi Chintan, Yes, I understand completely that I am at the mercy of the consumer with regard to what they put in the qualification. You did not confuse me. :-)
However, when I put the following into the Qualification: box in Developer Studio: XPATH(/ROOT/qualification) AND 'distribution' != "Internal" I receive the following error: ERROR (1583): Expected a relational operation at this point; position 0, 5147, solutions Dev Studio is trying to make sure that this is a syntactically-correct qualification, and it is not. So this is the original problem/question... how do I combine XPATH(/ROOT/qualification) with my own additional qualification? Thanks for your continued interest. Larry 1583 Error Relational operator expected at this position. The only legal operator at this position in a search line is a relational operator (=, !=, <, <=, >, >=, or LIKE). Fix the format of the line, and perform the search again.
