The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.

I had questions like this, too, and I'm satisfied that I can get what I
want now.
You really should try it some, go online and see all the material on
XMLTABLE - this is not exclusive to IBM i - it is functionality
supported in all manner of RDBMS.
Basically you specify a level in the hierarchical structure as a
starting point - kind of like a root directory, except you can name
other nodes both above and below the root. You can use .. (double-dot)
to refer to something above.
You specify the columns using references to nodes within the root, and
above, if needed.

I'd be shocked if XMLTABLE, which uses a SET based approach, doesn't
perform faster.
I haven't used XMLTABLE yet. But I'm a little perplexed about mapping
hierarchically structured "documents" to "tables". Vern indicated that he
would be populating about 13 tables from apparently one XML document.
