Right, i forgot about

xmlDoc.setProperty("SelectionLanguage", "XPath"); 

That solves everithing. Oh well, i just have the chance to write a
piece of scrap anyhow...

Oh, I'm using XPath allright, 

xmlDoc.selectNodes("(//Menu)["+(pos)+"]/MenuTitulo")[0];

the [0] is not part of XPath, it's the array selectNodes returns.
Offcourse i can use selectSingleNode...

Thanks a lot for your help.
