Question

I’m trying to return multiple rows from xml data. I have loaded the result into a dictionary. The code below gives me the last result (row 1 or Randy). How do I retrieve all of the results instead of just the last one? I’m looking for CSHR_POS_NAME where [ID.text intValue] == CSHR_NUM.

dict = [resp objectForKey:@"TC"];
 if( ( dict == nil ) || ![dict isKindOfClass:[NSDictionary class]] ) {
  NSLog( @"WARNING: %@", [dict description]);
  return;
}

desc = [[dict objectForKey:@"CSHR_POS_NAME"]copy];
CashierNum = [[dict objectForKey:@"CSHR_NUM"]copy];

NSLog(@"Name: %@ and Cashier Number: %@",desc, CashierNum);

the log for the xml output is:

<NewDataSet xmlns="">
  <TC diffgr:id="TC1" msdata:rowOrder="0">  
    <CSHR_POS_NAME>BRITTANY</CSHR_POS_NAME>
    <CSHR_NUM>66</CSHR_NUM>
  </TC>
  <TC diffgr:id="TC4" msdata:rowOrder="1">
    <CSHR_POS_NAME>Randy</CSHR_POS_NAME>
    <CSHR_NUM>7</CSHR_NUM>
  </TC>
</NewDataSet> 
</diffgr:diffgram>

It seems you have an array of dictionaries with the "TC" key. Should you not be trying to read the response as an array, and then iterate through the dictionaries?
