Thanks for the help. I thought about trying the Xpath approach. But I
don't have much experience there... ;-)
And also thanks for the advice about multi-value properties. I guess I
have to rethink my setup.

Hi Will!
Not very experienced with SQL in JCR, since I like using Xpath more
for JCR queries, so this is an Xpath solution ;-)
You should store the list of supercategories in a multi-value property
instead of a subnode (using multival properties is more natural for
JCR than using node structures with self-created indices like 0,1,..
in your example). Then you would have a multi-value property
superCategories in each category node (or none, if it is empty). The
Xpath query for your use case of finding categories with a
supercategoriy would then be:
/jcr:root/path/to/my/productCategories/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
Or for finding nodes that don't have a supercategory:
/jcr:root/path/to/my/productCategories/*[not(@superCategories)]
Hope this helps!

Alex

I've got a node structure like this

- category4

- category5
As you can see, a category can have references to multiple
superCategories.
Now I would like to get all "top level" productcategories, i.e. all
product
categories with no supercategories assigned (= category1 and
category5 in my
sample above). Strange enough finding all categories which do have
a super
category assign works fine:
select * from nt:base where superCategories IS NOT NULL
The oposit does not work:
select * from nt:base where superCategories IS NULL
lists all product categories! Strange to me, but maybe one of you
has a good
explanation or even better: A solution to my problem? And to make
it a bit
more difficult: This node should also be found by the query:
- category6
- superCategories
(i.e. a node with a subnode "superCategories", but this node does not
contain any references).
Thanks for the help!
