I am parsing data from my client's webservice coming in as xml. When it comes in, the data is often nested into tables and is causing me a bit of difficultly in getting the overall data in a consistent manner. I don't really want to have to break up the data set into multiple duplicated queries. I thought I saw another question in the community like this but I can't seem to find it now. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
@ootbthinking,
Please check ImkeF's solution in this similar thread, you can add a column to check if the current row of the column to expand is of type table.

I checked it out but am having a little trouble with this. Can @ImkeF provide the 4 codes from the video? My data is nested deep due the layers of the xml. I typically have to expand the tables about 6 to 8 times to get to the data. I'm close . . .
Hi @ootbthinking,
sorry, not sure what you're after here and what code I can provide, so please give more details of what the actual problem is: If your data is in the 5th-8th-level, then you click there - where is the problem?
