Hi,


In the previous message you write to me that 
...
You are currently using "ancestor(SgPlantType[@ID])"


Try using this: "ancestor(SgPlantType)/@ID"
...


In another place I want the ancestor of some nodes ... and I utilize the
same structure of codes: ancestor(SgPesticide)/@ID but it doesn't work
because the ancestor is not at the same level of the tree node ???


Can you give me some informations


Thanks in advance for your help,
Eric
