    Thanks for the great feedback and the code examples, Mike. Heh... "dark side" indeed... I hate XML 😛 Still, it seems that's the way a lot of folks have gone and I'm going to do some more heavy testing on some XML things... you know what they say... "Know thy enemy" :w00t:

    Part of the testing isn't to avoid XML... I can see grand use for some of the "new" XML functions like the concatenation example, for example (even though one should severely limit the use of concatenation in SQL).

    Hey Jeff, send me your address and I'll fire off a copy of my SQL Server XML book to you in a few months when it goes to press 🙂 You might find some other useful features in there as well 🙂
