Hi Mike,

You mean storing the XML into the database including prefixes and namespaces? I don't see any obvious reason why this shouldn't work. But you still have to declare the namespace prefixes in your query to be able to use that..

You might want to clean up the prefixes in your XML though.. ;-)

Kind regards,
Geert
