Hello All,

I have used the XML Node Iterator to process single documents, it works great! Now I have to process an entire directory of XML documents. Does anyone have a suggestion about how I might best approach this challenge?

Thanks in advance,

Vince

Hi Vince   
  
 Define a FileSet an then use the File Iterator to iterate over the files, and do your xml node iteration inside that (make your xml actions children of the file iterator action).
