Hello:

I'm trying to find 2 paths in an XML file by using the | operator, the syntax for it is: //title | //price, when I put the 2 expressions together, I get different errors, below I included the 2 paths, what is the right way to build the complete predicate?


strNode = "//*[ID=""" & intCustomerID & """]"
strNode = "//*[Date=""" & DaterFilterClean.value & """]"

Set FilterNode = FilterDocXML.documentElement.selectSingleNode(strN ode)

When I use either string separatelly, it works fine!


Thanks for any help

You haven't shown us the incorrect code or the error message, but I suspect you are using "|" to join two boolean expressions, for example

a="3" | b="5"

the correct operator to use here is "or". The "|" is a union operator and can only be used between two expressions that return node-sets.

I found the solution myself, on selecting several paths, I was using the operator | as per XPath syntaxis, but VB6 didn't like it, so i tried with the AND operator instead, it works!


strNode = "//*[ID=""" & intCustomerID & """ and Date=""" & DaterFilterClean.value & """]"

Thanks to those who replied.
