.net to coldfusion web service xml parsing - asp.net

Question

I'm almost there with this project. Given the xml below:
<diffgr:diffgram xmlns:msdata="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xml-msdata" xmlns:diffgr="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:xml-diffgram-v1">
<debtor xmlns="http://tempuri.org/Database.xsd">
<Customer diffgr:id="Customer1" msdata:rowOrder="0" diffgr:hasErrors="true">

<Address diffgr:id="Address1" msdata:rowOrder="0">

<Address3>AKL</Address3>

<PostCode>1098</PostCode>
<LocationCode>1</LocationCode>
<AgentID>1</AgentID>
</Address>
I can access all the data, except the address details and populate a query object, using the code below:
<cfset Local.xRows = Local.xData["diffgr:diffgram"]["debtor"] />
<cfloop from="1" to="#arrayLen(Local.xRows.xmlChildren)#" index="Local.i">
<cfset Local.thisRow = Local.xRows.xmlChildren[Local.i] />
<cfset Local.tableName = Local.thisRow.xmlName />
<cfset queryAddRow(Local.result[Local.tableName], 1) />
<cfloop from="1" to="#arrayLen(Local.thisRow.xmlChildren)#" index="Local.j">
<cfif listfindnocase(vCols,Local.thisRow.xmlChildren[Local.j].xmlName)>
<cfset querySetCell(Local.result[Local.tableName], Local.thisRow.xmlChildren[Local.j].xmlName, Local.thisRow.xmlChildren[Local.j].xmlText, Local.result[Local.tableName].recordCount) />
</cfif>
</cfloop>
</cfloop>
However, I am stuck with how to access the individual address detail nodes under the main address node:
<Address diffgr:id="Address1" msdata:rowOrder="0">
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I think you're trying to reference those individual nodes using an absolute reference instead of the easier local reference you get by using cfloop.
<cfset xmlCustomerInfo = xmlDoc.info[ "Customer" ][ Local.i ] />
<cfset arrAddressList = xmlCustomerInfo[ "Address" ] />
<cfloop
index="Local.j"
from="1"
to="#ArrayLen( arrAddressList )#"
step="1">
<cfset innerAddressNode = arrAddressList[ Local.j ] />
</cfloop>
Here are some great references to parsing XML in Coldfusion.
