so you are saying that XML-INTO can't create a trunk of elements that is

parent element ?

Henrik, I'm afraid I have no idea what you mean.

In case "trunk" was an XML term I had not encountered before in an XML context I tried googling and still got nothing.

If this is the XML:

<A>
<B>
<C>data</C>
<D>moredata</D>
</B>
...

The if you mean "Can XML-INTO with handler grab the arbitrary "lump" of XML contained within the <B> element" then the answer is no. It could only retrieve into a structure that explicitly defined <C> and <D> within it.

XML-INTO uses the %HANDLER effectively as the INTO target. It can't do anything with the handler that it could not do without it (other than size related issues).
