AddNoteRequest is a message that is being setup for a Web Service. ".text" is one the exposed properties for the Web Service call.
The NoteDto message refers to a simple flat file schema. There is only one "Note" node per NoteDto message. Neither of the messages are multi-part. AddNoteRequest.text is not a distinguished field since it is part of the Web Service call, but the "Narrative" attribute is a distinguished field at the moment.
When I dump the NoteDto message back out to a flat file after the construct message shape completes, the value of the attribute I'm trying to extract is there the same as at the start.
I've tried setting .text to some literal string and it works fine, so it has to be with the xpath query I'm using.
Thanks
