Hi, Thx for the info below.
Can you do something like (and I haven't tested this!)
copy from /transformation/step/description/text() into buffer
paste into /transformation/step/file/name/text()
?
I guess the problem is that the above paths match *multiple* elements. In
which case you could make use of the <call> subtask and do something like:
<call path="/transformation/step">
<param name="desc1" value="description/text()">
<param name="desc2" value="file/name/text()">
<action>
<paste path="file/name/text()" value="@{desc1} @{desc2}"/>
</action>
</call>
(not tested!)
or something similar (the <call> task calls the enclosed <action> for each
occurrence of the nominated path). That would be more what you want, I
think... Let me know how you get on.
