Convert XMLTYPE to VARCHAR2 or CLOB?

291527Jun 13 2002
Does anyone know how to convert an XMLTYPE variable to VARCHAR2 or CLOB? I am using the XMLELEMENT function to select XML into an XMLTYPE variable (VARCHAR2 and CLOB will not accept xml from this function). But I would like to convert the xml in the XMLTYPE variable to VARCHAR2 or CLOB. Can anyone please tell me how to do this? The reason is that I would like to call this procedure from MS ADO.
