Tag Path

The tag path is used to uniquely identify an XML tag within a document.  It is possible to have the same tag appear several times in the same document and the tag path sets the context for and uniquely identifies each instance of that same tag. The tag path specifies the path from the document root to the location of the tag in the document tree. Starting with the document root each ancestor of the current tag is listed in the tag path and is separated from the preceding tag by a slash ('/');

For example the tag "City" could occur multiple times within a document describing an order to be shipped from a company with multiple warehouse location to a company with multiple offices.  

              Tag Path                                Tag
/Order/Customer/Billing_AddressCity
/Order/Customer/Shipping_AddressCity
/Order/Shipping/ShipFrom_AddressCity

Forms the following elements in the resulting xml document each of which would likely map to a different filePro field:

/Order/Customer/Billing_Address/City
/Order/Customer/Shipping_Address/City
/Order/Shipping/ShipFrom_Address/City
