Error when parsing data from XML via web url

I am parsing data from my client's webservice coming in as xml.  When it comes in, the data is often nested into tables and is causing me a bit of difficultly in getting the overall data in a consistent manner.  I don't really want to have to break up the data set into multiple duplicated queries.  I thought I saw another question in the community like this but I can't seem to find it now.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I checked it out but am having a little trouble with this.  Can @ImkeF provide the 4 codes from the video?  My data is nested deep due the layers of the xml.  I typically have to expand the tables about 6 to 8 times to get to the data.  I'm close . . .

Hi @ootbthinking,

sorry, not sure what you're after here and what code I can provide, so please give more details of what the actual problem is: If your data is in the 5th-8th-level, then you click there - where is the problem?
