Hi RudiC,

Thanks a lot for your reply.

The above code is working fine if the log has either empty timestamp1 or value in timestamp1 for all the xmls in that log. If the log have empty timestamp1 for one xml and value for timestamp1 in another xml in the same log, then it is not working.

But I thought of splitting the xml with the html tag and the one with empty timestamp1 will have more wc than the other. So I will elimate the xml with value in timestamp1 here. Thanks a lot for your help.

This the first time in the entire thread that you are talking of more than one log file snippet to be extracted. There's a rule in IT: garbage in garbage out, so...
Anyhow, I'm happy I could help and you found a solution.

Hi RudiC,

I have mentioned that I have so many xml in one log at the beginning of the thread.

Thanks RudiC for the help.
