H John,

XQuery Update will help you [1]; this is one option:

for $c in doc('country-new.xml')//Country return insert node $c into doc('country.xml')/Contries

Hope this helps, Christian

Hi there,

I am have stored one large document in BaseX DB. Now I want to add more to the same DB. Is there any simple way to do the same?

Say, I had a file country.xml given below

<Countries> <Country>A</Country> <Country>B</Country> <Country>C</Country> <Country>D</Country> </Countries>

I stored this in BaseX DB.

Now I have another file with same format

<Countries> <Country>E</Country> <Country>F</Country> <Country>G</Country> <Country>H</Country> </Countries>

I want this file to update the previous DB.... so that the DB will have in all 8 countries.

Is there any simple way to do this...
