The code context is CQ - so I don't think there is a default namespace. I am just entering xquery through CQ.
Can you help me understand how to tell if that is indeed the problem, and what to do to get around it?

In the code context where you're doing /testreport I bet you have a default element namespace which is implicitly requiring <testreport> be in that namespace. -jh- On Aug 18, 2011, at 11:40 AM, Zegarek, Arthur wrote: Load 2 small xml documents into a collection, and would like to be able to write an xquery that scans across all documents without naming them Example: Doc 1 contains: <testreport><report><filename>abc</filename></report></testreport> Doc 2 contains: <testreport><report><filename>xyz</filename></report></testreport> Load each file as follows: Doc 1: xdmp:document-load("/opt/home/testreport1.xml", <options xmlns="xdmp:document-load"> <uri>testreport1</uri> <collections> <collection>TESTDOCS</collection> </collections> </options>) Doc 2: xdmp:document-load("/opt/home/testreport2.xml", <options xmlns="xdmp:document-load"> <uri>testreport2</uri> <collections> <collection>TESTDOCS</collection> </collections> </options>) Run this xquery: for $test in collection("TESTDOCS") return $test Results: <testreport><report><filename>abc</filename></report></testreport> <testreport><report><filename>xyz</filename></report></testreport> But run this xquery: for $test in collection("TESTDOCS")/testreport return $test Results: Empty Also tried with // and testreport[1] I know this can be done, but I'm not clear on what is missing/incorrect from this simple example.
