Set based operations in Biztalk rules

[Pacman56]

I am trying to create a rule that will loop through a stucture and check a rule against each loop. So basically "for each child node of this node check
a certain value". Also is it possible to maintain a variable whilst running the loop to keep a tally of another value? Like if you are totalling up a
value that is on each node? Not sure if this is clear enough please ask if you need more info.

Many Thanks in advance

You can set Public Variables up just like in VB Code. Since I'm not sure which version you are on, this may not make complete sense, but I'll try an 2002 example.

To initialize the variable
Public variablename
variablename = 0

Then to refer to it in the code
variablename = variablename + 1
This would increment the variable by 1

Hope this helps.
