Here is an example of processing an XML in a stored procedure:
declare @myxml as XML = N'
<TABLENAME> 
   <Fld Name="Field1">ValueInField1</Fld> 
   <Fld Name="Field2">ValueInField2</Fld> 
   <Fld Name="Field3">ValueInField3</Fld> 
</TABLENAME> '

-- SQL Select to get the values
SELECT [Field].value('.','varchar(100)') as FldValue, [Field].value('@Name','varchar(20)') as FldName 
  FROM @myxml.nodes('/TABLENAME/Fld') Fld25 ([Field])

-- The Results window will the following:
FldValue           FldName
ValueInField1   Field1
ValueinFiedl2   Field2
ValueInField3   Field3
My question is, how can I SCAN through the results. I know that SQL Server does not have a SCAN command so I use it as a pseudo term. But basically I need to create (dynamically) a SQL INSERT based on the values in the XML and the only way I see it possible is by scanning the results (keep in mind that the number of elements in the email is a variable).
Any suggestions?
