Anyone can explain why I am getting a different result using the following expression:
cFileName = "test.xml"
XMLTOCURSOR(cFileName,"alias_name", 512)
The content of text.xml looks like following:
<DataBase>
 <ConnectionInfo>
  <DBKey>1</DBKey>
  <String>SQLNCLI10</String> 
  </ConnectionInfo>
 <ConnectionInfo>
  <DBKey>2</DBKey>
  <String>SQLNCLI10</String> 
  </ConnectionInfo>
</DataBase>
The above XML file produces a cursor with the column DBKey is number, 1 and 2. This is what I expect.

But if I have only one element ConnectionInfo as following:
<DataBase>
 <ConnectionInfo>
  <DBKey>1</DBKey>
  <String>SQLNCLI10</String> 
  </ConnectionInfo>
</DataBase>
Then the above test.xml produces a cursor where the column DBKey is .T.

Why? Could someone explain what I am missing?
