Oops, missed Jon's message thereby repeating it. I guess the point is that
there are easy ways to do this: it's generally easier to manipulate a string
then parse it than it is to manipulate a CF XML data structure. But you
haven't explained what you're trying to do. If your collection looks like
this:
<collection>
<file>some value</file>
<file>some value</file>
<file>some value</file>
<file>some value</file>
</collection>
Then Jon's code will do the job surely?
