Change Node

The Change Node action replaces the value of an xml node found using an XPath expression.  The node can be an attribute or an element.  To use this action you provide a path to an existing Xml Document by selecting from a list of known folders on the client target and then providing a sub path and file name.

You then provide an XPath expression to identify the node that you want to change.  If more than one node matches the XPath expression, you can choose one of five actions:

      Change all nodes (the default action)

      Change only the first node found

      Change only the last node found

      Don’t change any nodes

      Abort the update

You provide the new node text and nodes are changed based on the setting above.
