Lookup Value to Store

The XML node location of the value that will be stored in the SharePoint list when the item is selected and the list item is saved.  This property is optional; if no value is provided, the lookup will utilize the value represented by the URL to XML. This property can be specified in one of two ways:

1) A simple xpath query, represented by the following:
                   :xpath=(your xpath query here)

2) An XML string, which allows you to specify a more complex value consisting of multiple xpath queries and static text values. The XML string will contain a values root node with child value nodes representing your individual string pieces. The value nodes contain a single attribute type which tells the property whether it should treat the value as static text or an xpath query. The attribute values are type="text" or type="xpath".

Default:  Value of the URL to XML property

Example:       :xpath=NewDataSet/Table1/Title
                   <values>
                             <value type="xpath">NewDataSet/Table1/Title</value>
                             <value type="text"> - </value>
                             <value type="xpath">NewDataSet/Table1/Description</value>
                   </values>
