Advanced User Defined Function

Question

Dear All,
I have a target structure as follows:
<Item>
   <Record10>
      <RecordType>
      <BankCode>
      <AccountID>
      <Amount>
   </Record10>
   <Record50>
      <RecordType>
      <Segment1>
      <segment2>
      <segment3>
   </Record50>
</Item>
I want to fill the elements in the Record50 in a special way by using some logic. Sometimes I may have to create multiple Record50 structures. So I'm using an advanced user defined function to do this.
My mapping is as follows:
Source Structure -> myFunction()->Record50
And in myFunction() I wrote the following piece of code:
result.addValue("50");
result.addValue("PayRef1");
result.addValue("Address");
result.addValue("Nil");
I expect the output to be:
   <Record50>
      <RecordType>50</RecordType>
      <Segment1>PayRef1</Segment1>
      <segment2>Address</segment2>
      <segment3>Nil</segment3>
   </Record50>
But the output is like this:
<Record50>50</<Record50>
<Record50>PayRef1</<Record50>
<Record50>Address</<Record50>
<Record50>Nil</<Record50>
Can somebody tell me how to proceed? I tried to insert a context change in the beginning, but then the Record50 itself is not appearing.
Thanks,
Sandeep

Hi,
Advanced UDF will not create you like you expected.
You need to do like this
Source>myFunction1()-><RecordType>
And in myFunction() you do code:
result.addValue("50");
Source>myFunction2()-><Segment1>
And in myFunction2() you do code:
result.addValue("PayRef1");
so on..
Thanks,
