Well it took you long enough:)
Thanks so much much Lisa!

BTW, WHile I have you on the line, what is the purpose of a namespace designation like this:

xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.ABCD.org/xsd/ABCD ABCD.xsd"

ABCD.xsd is local to my java server, but the URL references a remote server.

As a reward, please accept this link!

>Terry, yes, there is a DOM object somewhere underlying the XMLAdapter object (not the cursoradapter).

I am pretty sure that XMLAdapter.SOM is available in VFP 8, IOW not new in VFP 9. Also I'm pretty sure that XMLAdapter exposes IXMLDOMElement in 8.
