I believe that it is both substantive and incorrect. The return clause of a transform is not limited to return only copied nodes. The expression in the return clause may include references to original, not-copied nodes, as in this example: let $oldx := /a/b/x return transform copy $newx := $oldx modify (do rename $newx as "newx", do replace value of $newx by 47) return ($oldx, $newx) Since I believe this bug report to be substantive, I am marking it "Invalid" but not closing it. If you agree with my analysis, please close this bug report. Regards, Don Chamberlin (for the Query Working Group) 15446 2 mrys 2007-06-16 00:22:30 +0000 Thanks Don... If that is the case, having an explicit example would be useful. Best regards Michael 16121 3 chamberl 2007-08-09 22:55:36 +0000 Michael, I have added an example to the description of the transform expression as you requested. Regards, Don Chamberlin
