        It's a stupid question but I speak Dutch and can't directly find a translation for the word.

         When do you use a Sibling field or record…

          A sibling is related to another node like:

          <root>

            <base>

              <something>

           

          In this example, the something node is a sibling to the base node.

           

          It is also called a Parent – Child relationship.

           

          Hope this helps.

              not sure I agree with this.

               

              <root>

                  <base1>

                        <something1>

                   <base2>

                         <something2>

                         <something3>

                   <base3>

               

              In the above, the siblings are: base1, base2, base3 …. also, something2 & something 3 are siblings.

              Base1 & Something1 are parent/child.  so is Base2 & Something2.

              Think of a sibling as "brother/sister"… not parent/child.

                  Not sure what I was thinking.  You are right.  Siblings are brother \ sister records.

                    Yeh Stephen….he is right

                    Sibling means children of same parent.

                    I mean

                    Root1

                    Parent1(Record)-Child1(Field Element)

                                            Child2(Field Element)

                    Parent2(Record)-Child3(Field Element)

                                            Child4(Field Element)

                     

                    Now here Child1 and Child2 are sibllings and Child3 and Child4 are siblings.

                    Child1 and Child4 are not siblings as they are not children of same parents.

                     Hope you find it useful.
