XML and variable?

[IamScott]

Stupidity Disclaimer:

I'm new and I am being baptized as a coder wannabe while in the fire of learning Crystal,SQL, VB and XML for a project. What I have below is how the current XML holds a "hard coded value(xxyydd2240)" ... I think.

How can I rewrite the expression to act
sort of as a variable between <Value></Value> instead of what is hard coded in there? FYI, My project is translating Crystal to SQL Reporting Services.

I hope this question makes sense and what I want to do is reasonable.

Thanks in advance.....
