Actually I'm just looking to hide the element. I'll try and explain it a little bit better. basically the data table will have, lets say, 100 records. I'll run the program to export it to SAS. 50 of the 100 records do not contain data for address_4. For those records that do not contain data for address_4 I would like to have the entire field hidden. Here's an example;   No value for address_4        <send_address>         <address_1>JOHN SMITH</address_1>         <address_3>555 SMITH WAY</address_3>         <city>SMITH</city>         <state>CA</state>         <zip>8675309</zip>        </send_address>   Value present for address_4          <send_address>         <address_1>JOHNETTE SMITH</address_1>         <address_3>555 JOHNETTE ST</address_3>         <address_4>APARTMENT A</address_4>         <city>SMITH</city>         <state>CA</state>         <zip>8675309</zip>        </send_address>   I hope this makes sense. I would think it would be possible at least I really hope it is. Thanks for the feedback so far.   -Micah   ... View more

The output is the code block on top with the section highlighted in red. The vendor that I send the xml to requires that if the value is empty then the element should be hidden. There's a few other pieces of the map that would require this as well so understanding how to do it is extremely important. ... View more
