You could concatenate the 2 files with a common root and then use xslt
to do the matching. Depends what you want as the output really=20

Hi all,

Are there any xml experts here? I have a small problem I am trying to
resolve and wondered if there was a program out there that could achieve
my end result.

I have two xml files - one is basically a list of items and each list
element starts with it's own unique ID. The second xml file is also a
list which has one element I want to combine with the first xml file and
again the element contains a unique ID. What I want to do is simple
enough - when the two unique IDs match I want the element from the
second file to be added to the first file basically concatenating them
together when there is a match.

I've searched on Google for a likely program but am getting lost with
finding what I want. Any ideas?

TIA

Thornybird
