xml query??

[hog]

could anyone explain why based on the following I get both elements returned when I only want to return the path element??

 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?> 
<!ELEMENT config (path, sysadmin)>
<!ELEMENT path (#PCDATA)>
<!ELEMENT sysadmin (#PCDATA)>

 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE Config PUBLIC "SYSTEM" "xConfig-DTD.xml">
<Config>
 <path>C:\Documents and Settings\paul\My Documents\project.mdb</path>
 <sysadmin>d.p.hooper</sysadmin>
</Config>

 

       Try

           Dim strDocument As String = Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.System) & "\xConfig.xml"

           Dim xPathDocument As XPathDocument = New XPathDocument(strDocument)

           Dim xPathNav As XPathNavigator = xPathDocument.CreateNavigator

           xPathNav.MoveToRoot()

           Dim xPathNodeIterate As XPathNodeIterator = xPathNav.Select("descendant::config/path")

           xPathNodeIterate.MoveNext()

           strPath = xPathNodeIterate.Current.Value

       Catch objException As Exception

           ShowError("Location:   Class frmMain" & ControlChars.CrLf & ControlChars.CrLf & _
                     "Procedure:  SetUserPref" & ControlChars.CrLf & ControlChars.CrLf & "Error Text: " & _
                     objException.Message)

           Return False

      End Try
