Returning XML values

I have an XML field in one of our tables.
A sample of the data is here:
<PackageAddTask xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/
XMLSchema"><Item><PackageItemId>11</
PackageItemId><PackageId>6</PackageId><Path>https://10.126.22.1/
SBGImages</Path><Filename>image1.img</Filename><InstallOrder>0</
InstallOrder></Item></PackageAddTask>
I need to retrieve the PackageID value from this field
This query returns the entire item.
SELECT Detail.query('/PackageAddTask/Item/PackageId')
FROM Task T Where TaskTypeID = 4
This query SHOULD return the value, but instead, return NULL
Select Detail.value('(/PackageAddTask/Item/@.PackageItemId)[1]',
'int')
as Result
FROM Task T Where TaskTypeID = 4
What am I missing here?Brian Bunin,
Try:
Select Detail.value('(/PackageAddTask/Item/PackageItemId)[1]', 'int') as
Result
FROM Task T
Where TaskTypeID = 4
go
