Query xml field in Query Plan DMV

I anot expertin XML and need to query a value in the field "query_plan" of
the "sys.dm_exec_query_plan" DMV. The value I is the whether queries has
Parallelism value more than 0. I remeber have seen something like
sys.dm_exec_query_plan.query_plan.value ('declare namespace.......
Is there in BOL a chapter on how querying special SQL xml schemas ?
Thanks in advanceHello eliassal,
You could query the XML column in the DMV as any other XML column in SQL by
using the XQuery.
For example, I use this Statement to query the query_Plan:
select query_plan.query('declare namespace
showplan="http://schemas.microsoft.com/sqlserver/2004/07/showplan";
/showplan:ShowPlanXML/showplan:BatchSequence/showplan:Batch') from
sys.dm_exec_query_plan(<my plan handle id> )
For more detailed information about how to query the XML date using XQuery,
please refer this article:
XQuery Against the xml Data Type
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms189075.aspx
For more detailed information about the schema of the query_plan, pleaser
refer this article:
sys.dm_exec_query_plan
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/ms189747.aspx
http://schemas.microsoft.com/sqlserver/
Hope this will be helpful!

"RelOp" element without success
In the sql schemq it is defined as follows :
<xsd:element name="RelOp" type="shp:RelOpType" />
<xsd:element name="ParameterList" type="shp:ColumnReferenceListType"

As I said yesterday, I understood in a sql article that if the

I am deserate!!!HELP :-)
