Thank to Lee and Jasmine for trying to help me.<br /><br />Maybe, i think I can't explain the problem.<br /><br />Lee, I have to include the field name, so I need to use ExtractToXML.<br /><br />If I use only the Decode Components, in the outputXMLDocs I can find the following text:<br /><br /><xb:decode><br /> <xb:date>2007-09-06T13:13:23.437+02:00</xb:date><br /> <xb:host_name>alessioserver</xb:host_name><br /> <xb:status type="success"><br /> <xb:message/><br /> </xb:status><br /> </xb:decode><br /> <xb:barcode id="1"><br /> <xb:header symbology="pdf417"><br /> <xb:location page_no="1"><br /> <xb:coordinates><br /> <xb:point x="0.14705883" y="0.39141414"/><br /> <xb:point x="0.75490195" y="0.39141414"/><br /> <xb:point x="0.75490195" y="0.67045456"/><br /> <xb:point x="0.14705883" y="0.67045456"/><br /> </xb:coordinates><br /> </xb:location><br /> </xb:header><br /> <xb:body><br /> <xb:content encoding="utf-8">Label TextField3 TextField4 32649b64-5eb5-41a3-8fa6-026a5465056e Mario Scaccia </xb:content><br /> </xb:body><br /> </xb:barcode><br /> <xb:barcode id="2"><br /> <xb:header symbology="pdf417"><br /> <xb:location page_no="1"><br /> <xb:coordinates><br /> <xb:point x="0.14705883" y="0.09090909"/><br /> <xb:point x="0.75490195" y="0.09090909"/><br /> <xb:point x="0.75490195" y="0.35732323"/><br /> <xb:point x="0.14705883" y="0.35732323"/><br /> </xb:coordinates><br /> </xb:location><br /> </xb:header><br /> <xb:body><br /> <xb:content encoding="utf-8">Label TextField1 TextField2 45ac21ba-16a5-4dd8-a501-c2c4ac7db565 Alessio Giorgietti </xb:content><br /> </xb:body><br /> </xb:barcode><br /></xb:scanned_image><br /><br />So, as you can easily see it's not so easy to parse this XML in order to put data in the Db directly.<br /><br />Then, If I use ExtractToXML component after the Decode component, so I obtain two file on the file system that are more "simple"<br /><br />the first:<br /> <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?> <br />- <xdp:xdp xmlns:xdp="http://ns.adobe.com/xdp/" xmlns:xfa="http://www.xfa.org/schema/xfa-data/1.0/"><br />- <xfa:datasets><br />- <xfa:data><br />- <form1><br /> <Label>32649b64-5eb5-41a3-8fa6-026a5465056e</Label> <br /> <TextField3>Mario</TextField3> <br /> <TextField4>Scaccia</TextField4> <br /> </form1><br /> </xfa:data><br /> </xfa:datasets><br /> </xdp:xdp><br /><br />and the second<br /><br /> <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?> <br />- <xdp:xdp xmlns:xdp="http://ns.adobe.com/xdp/" xmlns:xfa="http://www.xfa.org/schema/xfa-data/1.0/"><br />- <xfa:datasets><br />- <xfa:data><br />- <form1><br /> <Label>45ac21ba-16a5-4dd8-a501-c2c4ac7db565</Label> <br /> <TextField1>Alessio</TextField1> <br /> <TextField2>Giorgietti</TextField2> <br /> </form1><br /> </xfa:data><br /> </xfa:datasets><br /> </xdp:xdp><br /><br />In the variable logger, the only thing that refers to the final XML variable is<br /><br />/process_data/finalXML - List: java.util.ArrayList: Number of elements :2<br />{<br />1:[#document: null]<br />2:[#document: null]<br />}<br /><br />Now, I hope that you understand that my problem is that I can't succeded in putting in a variable the clear XML...I can only put the clear XML on the file system as an output variable.<br /><br />Thanks for supporting,<br />ABello
