You could extract the data using only XML::Parser. Or any of a host of other modules. As I and others have told you before, you need to get a basic understanding of the XML parsing concepts by studying something like http://perl-xml.sourceforge.net/faq/. If you just want to get this problem solved and not bother with the learning process, perhaps you need to hire someone to write this part of the program for you. It's trivial to write a program to extract the values you're looking for from the example you gave. If your data varies (i.e. multiple <ResultItem>'s per <egQuery>), you'll have to consider some of the options that XML::Simple has for constructing the tree. Or, perhaps an XPath approach like XML::XPath would be better, as others have pointed out to you. For XML::Simple, try the little program below. It will dump out the tree built by XML::Simple. Then you can see how to retrieve the values you're interested in... #!/usr/bin/perl use XML::Simple; $x = XMLin(\*DATA); use Data::Dumper; print Dumper($x); __DATA__ <Result> <Term>china</Term> <egQuery> <ResultItem> <DbName>Hallo</DbName> <MenuName>PubMed</MenuName> <Count>27832</Count> <Status>Ok</Status> </ReultItem> </egQuery> </Result> -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <http://learn.perl.org/> <http://learn.perl.org/first-response>
