Combine two XML documents

Asked by amd2002a in Extensible Markup Language (XML), Extensible Stylesheet Language Transformation (XSLT)

Tags: ,

I am trying to combine two XML strings to produce a new XML string. Both XML strings are based on the same schema but the data in the elements will be different. If both XML strings have an element that contains data in both strings, the resulting XML should have the two values concatenated into 1. See the attached code snippet for an example of what is expected.
