Hi,
I am failry new to xml document processing in Oracle using PL/SQL.
My DB version: Oracle Database 10g Enterprise Edition Release 10.2.0.3.0 - 64bit Production
I have successfully loaded an xml document into a table using the following two statements:
1) CREATE TABLE mytable2 OF XMLType;
2) INSERT INTO mytable2 VALUES (XMLType(bfilename('IMAGE_FILE_LOC', 'IFTDISB20100330172157C002.xml'), nls_charset_id('AL32UTF8')));
Now I need to traverse through the various nodes within the xml document and extract values of elements of each node. The question I have is:
How do I loop through a node? A VALID record is enclosed within the <checkItem> </checkItem> tags.
Here is a snippet of the data in that xml document:
