I assume "example" below is an instance of a complex type you didn't
provide. I think the issue is that there is only one Field in whatever
that containing element is, while there are multiple Value elements in a
single Field element.
xmls = '<Field Name="status"><Value ReferenceValue="Some Ref
Value">Open</Value></Field>'
instance = CreateFromDocument(xmls)
print instance.toxml('utf-8')
print instance.Name
print 'Field %s has %u values' % (instance.Name, len(instance.Value))
for v in instance.Value:
print 'Value type %s is %s' % (v.ReferenceValue, v.value())
produces:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?><Field Name="status"><Value
ReferenceValue="Some Ref Value">Open</Value></Field>
status
Field status has 1 values
Value type Some Ref Value is Open
