It's awful, I know, but I am trying to use XML elements only to represent irreducible elements in my real world domain. For example, a 'name' is a property of a company, but meaningless on it's own. This helps me to create more meaningful generic builds for all unknown elements. You are right though, it's becoming ugly...? Time to rethink my approach. Thanks for the help, Jacobus
