I think I'm nearly there with this but have reached an impasse!
I've a relatively straightforward XML structure that I need to parse out as a SQL resultset but can't seem to get it to work.
Here is the code:
DECLARE @xml XML;
SET @xml = '
<values>
<Nationality>
<item>
<key>UK</key>
<value>def</value>
</item>
<item>
<key>IE</key>
<value>def</value>
</item>
</Nationality>
<Currency>
<item>
<key>GBP</key>
<value>123</value>
</item>
<item>
<key>EUR</key>
<value>345</value>
</item>
</Currency>
</values>';
select I.X.value('(/key/text())[1]', 'int') as ItemID,
I.X.value('(/value/text())[1]', 'int') as Store
from @XML.nodes('/values/Nationality') as O(X)
cross apply O.X.nodes('/item') as I(X);
Essentially, I want to pull out the values from Nationality into:
Key | Value
-------------
UK | Def
IE | Def
I may want to do Currency later but I think if I get the above cracked then the rest will be simple enough.
Can you help please?
