what purpose does OPENXML clause have in sql server stored
procedure?
Answer / p.rajesh
OPENXML, a Transact-SQL keyword, provides a rowset over in-
memory XML documents that is similar to a table or a view.
OPENXML allows access to XML data as though it is a
relational rowset. It does this by providing a rowset view
of the internal representation of an XML document. The
records in the rowset can be stored in database tables.
OPENXML can be used in SELECT and SELECT INTO statements
wherever rowset providers, a view, or OPENROWSET can appear
as the source. For information about the syntax of OPENXML,
see OPENXML (Transact-SQL).
To write queries against an XML document by using OPENXML,
you must first call sp_xml_preparedocument. This parses the
XML document and returns a handle to the parsed document
that is ready for consumption. The parsed document is a
document object model (DOM) tree representation of various
nodes in the XML document. The document handle is passed to
OPENXML. OPENXML then provides a rowset view of the
document, based on the parameters passed to it.
