  Hello,

  I'm also trying to import certain fields of an xml-file into an existing sql table (neutc_import).

  Problem is: I get '0 rows affected' when I execute the query below.

  In the end I need to have mac-address and tcname for every machine in table neutc_import.

  I'm sure the query is wrong at least regarding the "Cross Apply" statement.

  As you can see I am not very experienced with this type of stuff - so your

  help is really appreciated - maybe just a small adjustment necessary (?)

  query:

  INSERT INTO neutc_import(macaddr,tcname)

  SELECT X.a.query('MACAddress').value('.', 'varchar(50)'),

  X.a.query('ComputerName').value('.', 'VARCHAR(50)')

  FROM (

  SELECT CAST(x AS XML)

  FROM OPENROWSET(

  BULK 'E:\scout_import\DSBU010995_Imdly_2_HwInfo.xml',

  SINGLE_BLOB) AS T(x)

  ) AS T(x)

  CROSS APPLY x.nodes('records/record') AS X(a);

  referenced xml:

  in looking at this, the complex root node Systems of the XML seems to be confusing SQL Server. If I make the root node just <Systems> instead of <Systems Version="4.00" xsi:schemaLocation="urn:schemas-ts-fujitsu-com:software-preload HWInfo4.00.xsd" xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" xmlns="urn:schemas-ts-fujitsu-com:software-preload">

  then this works for me:

  SELECT

  list.rows.query('SystemIdentification/MACAddresses/MACAddress').value('.', 'varchar(50)'),

  list.rows.query('OrderAttachements/PositionSpecificData/ClientParameters/ComputerName').value('.', 'varchar(50)')

  FROM (SELECT CAST(x AS XML) FROM OPENROWSET(BULK 'C:\Downloads\trying.xml', SINGLE_BLOB) AS T(x)) AS f(doc)

  CROSS APPLY f.doc.nodes('/Systems/System') AS list(rows)
