Sorry, I copied and pasted the document. The line should look as follows: d = server.db.queryDocument( "/db/homesite", "XUpdate", updatequery, l, "index" )
This line was used in the program that produced the results in my previous email. It will generate an error if the name of the doc-id are left out.

Hi Cobus. am I right, if I say you forgot the id of the document to xupdate? Both types of queries with "queryDocument", XPath or XUpdate need a doc-id.
