Good Day!We would like to seek help on managing multiple values within a single XML attribute. <Row> <title>type Title here</title> <description>type Description here</description> <stage>Development</stage> <platform>Java, .NET, Mainframe</platform> <lifecycle>Custom Development</lifecycle> <servicegroup>System Integration (SI), Technology Consulting (TC)</servicegroup> </Row> With the above sample xml, as you may notice, <platform> does have 3 values; (1) Java, (2) .NET and (3) Mainframe. We were able to load them separately. NOTE: We have 4 filters; (1) stage, (2) platform, (3) lifecycle and (4) servicegroup. PROBLEM: When we try to filter the platform and servicegroup. Scenario#1, we selected "Java" in the platform filter and use "where" condition. RESULT: It loads those items that has <platform>Java</platform> only and does not include <platform>Java, .NET, Mainframe</platform>. [bAD RESULT] Scenario#2, we selected "Java" in the platform filter and use "like" condition. RESULT: It loads all items that has <platform>Java</platform> and include <platform>Java, .NET, Mainframe</platform>. [GOOD RESULT] But the catch in using "like" condition is that it conflicts with platform values for "Oracle"... <platform>Oracle</platform> <platform>Oracle - PeopleSoft</platform> <platform>Oracle - Retek</platform> <platform>Oracle - Siebel</platform> Oracle - PeopleSoft, Oracle - Retek and Oracle - Siebel are different to each other. So, what if I selected "Oracle" for platform filter? We expected items which only have <platform>Oracle</platform> and not all of those items that has "Oracle".Any help appreciated.
