How is this question substantially different from your previous question on this topic? Maybe you want to show the Perl code you already wrote and tell us how it fails to perform what is needed?	[reply]

Its almost same..just trying with different approach to get it sorted.. code as below, `my $data = XMLin("a_def.xml", KeyAttr => { AlertDefinition => 'id' }, +ForceArray => ['AlertDefinition','id']); print Dumper $data; print $data->{AlertDefinition}->{name}; }` [download]	[reply] [d/l]

So, what does your program output and how does it fail? How is that different from what you expect? See Data::Dumper for inspecting the data structure you have and References Quick Reference for how to access the data within the data structure.	[reply]
