Remarks

The report uses each node selected in the RecordSetPattern to create a detail section.

Note: XSL patterns are case sensitive and must use valid XSL syntax. XSL and XPath documentation can be found on MSDN at http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/xmlsdk/html/xmrefxpathsyntax.asp .

Typical XSL patterns:

Pattern Description

//*                            All Nodes
//ITEM                      All ITEM Nodes
/                               Root item
/LAYOUT/ITEM/*         All child nodes of /LAYOUT/ITEM
//ITEM[@type]            All item nodes that contain the type attribute
//ITEM[@id="1"]         All item nodes that have an id attribute value of "1"
