Use XPath to find the 'interesting' nodes and .removeChild to zap them: <pre><code> Dim oFS : Set oFS = CreateObject("Scripting.FileSystemObject") Dim sFSpec : sFSpec = oFS.GetAbsolutePathName("..\data\01.xml") Dim oXML : Set oXML = CreateObject("Msxml2.DOMDocument.6.0") Dim sDate : sDate = "2012-08-31" oXML.setProperty "SelectionLanguage", "XPath" oXML.async = False oXML.load sFSpec If 0 = oXML.parseError Then WScript.Echo oXML.xml WScript.Echo "-----------------" Dim sXPath : sXPath = "/addons/addon[@date=""" & sDate & """]" Dim ndlFnd : Set ndlFnd = oXML.selectNodes(sXPath) If 0 = ndlFnd.length Then WScript.Echo sXPath, "not found" Else WScript.Echo "found", ndlFnd.length, "nodes for", sXPath Dim ndCur For Each ndCur In ndlFnd ndCur.parentNode.removeChild ndCur Next End If WScript.Echo "-----------------" WScript.Echo oXML.xml Else WScript.Echo oXML.parseError.reason End If </code></pre> output: <pre><code>====================================================================== <?xml version="1.0"?> <addons> <addon id="TicTacToe" date="2012-11-05"> <requires> <import addon="xbmc.python" version="1.0"/> </requires> </addon> <addon id="Sudoku" date="2012-08-31"> <requires> <import addon="xbmc.python" version="1.0"/> </requires> </addon> <addon id="Doom" date="1953-04-13"> <requires> <import addon="xbmc.python" version="1.0"/> </requires> </addon> <addon id="Muehle" date="2012-10-18"> <requires> <import addon="xbmc.python" version="1.0"/> </requires> </addon> </addons> ----------------- found 4 nodes for /addons/addon filtering for dtX <= 31.08.2012 ----------------- <?xml version="1.0"?> <addons> <addon id="TicTacToe" date="2012-11-05"> <requires> <import addon="xbmc.python" version="1.0"/> </requires> </addon> <addon id="Muehle" date="2012-10-18"> <requires> <import addon="xbmc.python" version="1.0"/> </requires> </addon> </addons> ====================================================================== </code></pre> The manual filtering sucks, but <ol> <li>it will come handy for your not-really-usefull date format</li> <li>I can't get XPath to accept <code><=</code> resp. <code>&lt;</code> in my search expression</li> </ol> This much better looking code fragment: <pre><code> ... Dim sXPath : sXPath = "/addons/addon[@date=""" & sDate & """]" Dim ndlFnd : Set ndlFnd = oXML.selectNodes(sXPath) If 0 = ndlFnd.length Then WScript.Echo sXPath, "not found" Else WScript.Echo "found", ndlFnd.length, "nodes for", sXPath Dim ndCur For Each ndCur In ndlFnd ndCur.parentNode.removeChild ndCur Next End If ... </code></pre> deletes the Sudoku node, but <pre><code>... Dim sXPath : sXPath = "/addons/addon[@date &lt; """ & sDate & """]" ... </code></pre> throws <pre><code>msxml6.dll: Unexpected character in query string. /addons/addon[@date -->&<--lt; "2012-08-31"] </code></pre>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
