@XMLVariable.query

How do I get the value of ID when an attribute is part of the XML? The
following script shows the problem. It should be ready to execute,
depending on wrapping. Test1 works; test2 and test3 have an attribute, and
do not work.
Thanks,
Richard

<DataSet xmlns="http://tempuri.org/DataSet.xsd">

goDoes this help?
declare @.Message xml
select @.Message =
N'<?xml version="1.0" standalone="yes" ?>
<DataSet xmlns="http://tempuri.org/DataSet.xsd">
<Request>
<ID>14</ID>
</Request>
</DataSet>'
select @.Message.query( 'declare default element namespace
"http://tempuri.org/DataSet.xsd";
data( /DataSet/Request/ID )' ) as Test2 ;
with xmlnamespaces(default 'http://tempuri.org/DataSet.xsd' )
select @.Message.query( 'data( /DataSet/Request/ID )' ) as Test2|||Your xml document is using a default namespace which must be defined somewhe
re.
Here is an example of one way to do it, note the use of the semicolon.
declare @.Message xml
select @.Message =
N'<?xml version="1.0" standalone="yes" ?>
<DataSet xmlns="http://tempuri.org/DataSet.xsd">
<Request>
<ID>14</ID>
</Request>
</DataSet>';
WITH XMLNAMESPACES (DEFAULT 'http://tempuri.org/DataSet.xsd')
select @.Message.query( 'data( /DataSet/Request/ID )' ) as Test2
