Hi Paul, Try this: /itemgroup/[EMAIL PROTECTED]"brick"]/@id Or this //[EMAIL PROTECTED]"brick"]/@id Btw this is more an XPath issue that a XUpdate issue because XUpdate uses XPath to select nodes to perform operations on. regards, Jeroen Breedveld -- X-Hive Corporation e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] phone: +31 10 7108622 http://www.x-hive.com ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Post a message: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Contact administrator: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Read archived messages: http://archive.xmldb.org/ ----------------------------------------------------------------------
