I have the following XML:

<AAA>
<BBB>
<CCC>111</CCC>
<CCC>222</CCC>
</BBB>
<BBB>
<CCC>333</CCC>
<CCC>444</CCC>
</BBB>
</AAA>

....and want to loop through AAA to find all BBBs that contain CCC nodes
matching 333 AND 444.

Any thoughts on the most effecient syntax for this?

Thanks,
BC

what about "AAA/BBB[CCC='333' and CCC='444']" ?

If <AAA> is the root element there is not much to loop through, as for
an XPath you would need
/AAA/BBB[CCC = '333' and CCC = '444']

thanks! I was making my statement *much* more complicated than it
needed to be!
