| I'm sure that the XML processing in DB2 is documented. What is it about the documentation that doesn't answer your question? Is this some homework, or some challenge? |

Hi Bill,
I am new to XML. I want to extract root document name(source) from any XML.I used the code :
| Code: |
select xmlcast(xmlquery('name(/*)' PASSING source_data ) as CHAR(30))
from table ; |
I read the manual and wrote this code but I did not get how to fetch the source name. Did not understand the exact usage of name function in xml.Does it by default gives the source name ? |
