    Sorry for the delay guys:

    DECLARE @x XML

    SELECT @x= CONVERT(xml, BulkColumn, 2) FROM

    OPENROWSET(BULK 'C:\data.xml', SINGLE_BLOB) AS x

    Ahh, I see. You loading the file in as I showed in the article, except that you're taking it straight to a variable. Then you're using that variable in sp_xml_preparedocument.

    If you can't explain to another person how the code that you're copying from the internet works, then DON'T USE IT on a production system! After all, you will be the one supporting it!
