Is there any way to get the "09-09-2009" string using xmlSearch() for the below 
xml?

<employee>
   <startDate>09-09-2009</startDate>
</employee>

I've been doing something like this, which is a real pain:

arrDate = xmlSearch(xml, "//employee/startDate");
strDate = arrDate[1].XmlText;

It seems that xmlSearch() must always return an array and is unable to return a 
string, which makes sense, but using the above code has gotten old, real fast.
