Hi All,

I am trying to grab the values of two tags with the same. See XML structure similar below:

1 2 </Data Set>

This XML Structure comes from context

Thanks for your help

    Hello Luke,
    What tool are you using to retrieve the values? XML databank?
    Have you tried using xpath: /DataSet/Value/text()

    Hi Omar,

    Thank you for your suggestion. Another one would be these values are sometimes present sometimes not or sometimes there's only one how do we go about with that?

    Thank you

    There is a great example on how to handle repeated elements with missing values in the SOAtest userguide:

    The example can also be found in the help content within the tool. Try it out and let me know if you have any questions :)

    Hi Omar,

    How would we extract these values using Java?
