  We receive a full block of XML with various segments on it.

  Need help in separating XML segments into separate XML chunks into local xml variables.

  The local xml variable, holding the separated xml segment, will be passed on parameter

  to another Store Procedure.

  For eg:

  Declare @Message xml

  set @Message = '<Message>

  <Procedure>sp_testProc</Procedure>

  <Customer>

  <row>

  <CustID>111</CustID>

  <CustName>TestName2</CustName>

  </row>

  <row>

  <CustID>222</CustID>

  <CustName>TestName2</CustName>

  </row>

  </Customer>

  <Product>

  <ProdCode>AA</ProdCode>

  <ProdName>TestProdAA</ProdName>

  </Product>

  </Message>'

  select @Message

  Declare @Proc xml

  Declare @Customer XML

  Declare @product xml

  ----Need query help to extract as below, from @Message.

  set @Proc = '<Procedure>sp_testProc</Procedure>'

  set @Customer = '<Customer>

  <row>

  <CustID>111</CustID>

  <CustName>TestName2</CustName>

  </row>

  <row>

  <CustID>222</CustID>

  <CustName>TestName2</CustName>

  </row>

  </Customer>'

  set @product =

  '<Product>

  <ProdCode>AA</ProdCode>

  <ProdName>TestProdAA</ProdName>

  </Product>'

  Appreciate any help on this, and need this to work on both SQL 2012 and 2005.

  Quick suggestion

  😎

  Declare @Message xml

  Declare @Proc xml

  Declare @Customer XML

  Declare @product xml

  set @Message = '<Message>

  <Procedure>sp_testProc</Procedure>

  <Customer>

  <row>

  <CustID>111</CustID>

  <CustName>TestName2</CustName>

  </row>

  <row>

  <CustID>222</CustID>

  <CustName>TestName2</CustName>

  </row>

  </Customer>

  <Product>

  <ProdCode>AA</ProdCode>

  <ProdName>TestProdAA</ProdName>

  </Product>

  </Message>'

  select

  @Proc = @Message.query('Message/Procedure')

  ,@Customer= @Message.query('Message/Customer')

  ,@Product = @Message.query('Message/Product')

  ;

  Output

  @Proc

  <Procedure>sp_testProc</Procedure>

  @Customer

  <Customer><row><CustID>111</CustID><CustName>TestName2</CustName></row><row><CustID>222</CustID><CustName>TestName2</CustName></row></Customer>

  @product

  <Product><ProdCode>AA</ProdCode><ProdName>TestProdAA</ProdName></Product>
