I have an XML that I need to output somewhat differently, for reference:


<?xml version="1.0"encoding="UTF-8"standalone="true"?>
<Computer >
<OS Name="Microsoft Windows 7 Ultimate"
ServicePack="1"/>OS - Category, Namem, Service Pack - Property,
<HardDisks>
<HardDisk Value="C:\ (NTFS)"/>
</HardDisks>
<LocalGroups>
<Group Name="Administrators">
<Member Name="Administrator"/>
<Member Name="whargrove"/>
</Group>
<Group Name="Backup Operators">
</Group>
<Group Name="Guests">
<Member Name="Guest"/>
</Group>
<Group Name="IIS_IUSRS">
<Member Name="IUSR"/>
</Group>
<Group Name="boinc_projects">
</Group>
</LocalGroups>
</Computer>

Need to insert data like below into my table from above xml.
Here is a one special case i.e If the node contains child node need to insert parent node as parent in the table Parent column if child not exist need to insert NULL.


Category Property Value Parent
OS Name WH& NULL
HardDisks Null Null Null
HardDisk Value C:\ (NTFS) HardDisks
LocalGroups Null Null Null
Group Name Administrators LocalGroups
Member Aministrator Null LocalGroups
Member whargrove Null LocalGroups



How could i achieve this?
