Hi - 

I have  structure that looks like this:
<x>
  <y>
    <a>
     hello
    </a>
    <b>
     world
    </b>
  </y>
 <y>
    <a>
     apple
    </a>
    <b>
     pear
    </b>
  </y>
</x>

I want to sort the 'records' i.e. those with a root of 'y' by one of the tags 
in the their children.

I want to be able to create a sort field of y.a, but I cannot.

Does anybody know if I am banging my head against a brick wall here? Is there 
away to seach against tage (I've seen lots of examples attributes) and can I 
use 'complex field names' (with or without attributes)?

This stuff is all dynamic - I don't know what the structures might be, so I'm 
really unkeen on using strong typing at all ....

I am doing this first thing on a saturday, as my deadline was yesterday, but I 
might just be able to save my bacon if I can deliver for monday!

Thanks you for takig the time to read.

Laura
