    Convert a XMl Into Table

    Dear All,


    --create table tmp_DV(sno int,Name varchar(20))
    /*
    exec dp_convertxml @strXML=N'
    <NewDataSet>
    <EmpDetails>
    <sno>11</sno>
    <Name>Haja</Name>
    </EmpDetails>
    </NewDataSet>'
    */
    Alter Procedure dp_convertxml
    (
    @strXML xml
    )
    as
    Begin


    Declare @intPointer int
    exec sp_xml_preparedocument @intPointer output, @strXML

    --Insert into tmp_DV(sno,Name)
    Select sno,Name
    from OpenXml(@intPointer,'NewDataset/EmpDetails',2)
    With (sno int 'sno',Name varchar(20) 'Name')



    exec sp_xml_removedocument @intPointer

    select * from tmp_DV
    End

    I attached my Sp with Table creation. While converting the xml into table. it doesnt show any error, but no can be inserting. Kindly guide me.

    Hi,

    I think the problem is with the 3rd parameter in the OpenXml, Please ignore it and try. since it is a optional parameter, it doesn't cause any issue.
    <pre>Select sno,Name from OpenXml(@intPointer,'NewDataset/EmpDetails')
    With (sno int 'sno',Name varchar(20) 'Name')</pre>

    Hope it helps
    Thank you

    There are couple of ways to convert XML in to table
    1. read XML In dataset, it has inbuilt readXML method that can read xml and convert it to dataset
    2. read xml using xmlreader, xpathnavigator, XMLDocument and create a datatable object
    then you can insert data in it

    Thanks

    We have many ways to do it. All are depend on your requirement.
    1. If you want to save the xml as a string. You can create table and create column of text for the XML string. you can directly call the insert command and save the string.
    2. You can use the Serialization and Deserialization concept. You can create Object based on your xml. You can convert Serialize/Deserialize based on your requirement. The you can save the object properties in your table DB
    3. Create DataSet and read the XML using readXML and update it.
    4. You can pars the XML directly and get the values using XPath query, then you can store it in your DB

    All are depending on your requirement so you can do any of the above ways.
