As Dan correctly points out, for XmlBeans, that is an arbitrary piece of XML which could contain attribues, other elements, mixed text etc.
The easiest (and fastest) way that I can think of right now to get the string value is .newCursor().getTextValue() Radu -----Original Message----- From: Green, Jason M.

Is there an easy fix other than the parse function if they won't change it? -----Original Message----- From: Dan Durkin [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Tuesday, December 20, 2005 3:33 PM To: dev@xmlbeans.apache.org Subject: Re: What should be an easy xmlbeans question Jason, From your schema: <xs:element name="taskSetId"> </xs:element> if you want taskSetId to resolve to a string you should assign a type to the element that gets resolved to a string. see http://xmlbeans.apache.org/docs/2.0.0/guide/conXMLBeansSupportBuiltInSch emaTypes.html xs:string or xs:token etc should work.
