Hi Paul,No problem. I think I see the problem. I marked your post as the "correct answer".Thanks so much.I am going to build a similar file and xml data and see if I can make it work. If not, I'll certainly email you the attempt and we can go from there.Thanks again,joe

Hi Paul,Thanks very much for this effort. I think I can construct one of my own  using this example.I was not quite able to get it to work though. I did a Preview in LC and it choked.

I have a dynamic table with an ADD button in the header row and with DELETE buttons in all the rows after that.The idea is that I can add as many rows as I want and then delete them if I want.
