Please provide more details. Does the log give any warnings?

Usually an XPath problem but it could be any number of things. Not even going to guess without more information from you. First thing to do is exactly what 'thebird' suggested - have you checked the job's log? Any messages there that may shed some light on the issue?

thanks for ur reply.Actually the expected number of records are loaded into the xml file, and so no warnings or fatal error had occurred, but these records are not wriiten into the file i specify on the options tab of the xml output stage.

So were they written somewhere else, not written at all, or some other possibility? And how did you prove that?

[chulett]

And how can they be 'loaded into the xml file' and yet not be written? Or does that mean the 'expected number of records' were written to the XML Ouput stage?

Start your own thread, don't jump on the end of someone else's. That way we know your particulars. Do a better job of explaining what your job looks like in this new thread and what you are actually seeing or not seeing.

For example, do you get no file whatsoever or only an empty output file? What settings are you using in the stage? Are there any messages in the log from that stage, perhaps complaining about your XPath expressions? Note these may not be warnings, but just informational messages. The more information, the better!

Thank You for the Advice.

Folks you mite want to include the Xpath (also known as the Description field) on the XML_Output_Stage Input/Columns tab..
