Scott,
All I get back from the service is what you see below. I seen in the
code how to extract the payload when wrapped in a XML document but I do
not get the XML all I get is the payload. I would expect an XML
wrapped around it also but after speaking with the services tech team
they said this is how they do it and I will need to parse out this
return data just as it is.
I could write a parser for this but I was hoping there would already be
a way to parse this payload in your software and maybe I am just not
seeing it in the code.
Thanks again,

Hi George,
You haven't provided much information here... I'm guessing the problem
is that the web server is returning one XML document embedded within
another one? Is that what you're saying? That the document you show
here comes out of HTTPAPI's XML parser?
If so, here's an example of extracting an 'inner payload' XML from an
outer one:
