RE: xmlQueryCompileException

You need to direct this comment to the vendor of whichever XQuery engine it
is that you are using.
 
This list is for comments on the XQuery and XSLT family of specifications.

Subject: xmlQueryCompileException


Dear all,
 
I am trying to sort following xml document:
 
<Top100>
    <Song>
            <Title>testtitle1</Title>
            <Artist>testartist1</Artist>
            <Points>20</Points>
    </Song>
    <Song> 
            <Title>testtitle2</Title>
            <Artist>testartist2</Artist>
            <Points>50</Points>
    </Song>
</Top100>
 
By using XQuery in Visual Basic 2005 and by using followig XQuery command:
 
    <Top100> {for $s in /Top100/Song order by $s/Points return $s} </Top100>
 
But when I try to compile this command I always get an
xmlQueryCompileExceception with the followin message:
 
    Atomization (fn:data()) of order by expression should result in single
atomic value or an empty sequence. Actual type is 'xdt:untypedAtomic*'
 
Can you help me to solve this problem?
 
Kind regards
Steven Engels
