Removing ?xml version="1.0"? from the result

Question

Hi Friends
How do we remove <?xml version="1.0"?> from the result if we have ran two query in one resultset
e.g
qryCtx := DBMS_XMLGEN.newContext('select ename, job from emp where empno > 7900');
DBMS_XMLGEN.setRowSetTag(qryCtx,'employeedata');
DBMS_XMLGEN.setRowTag(qryCtx,'emp');
result := DBMS_XMLGEN.getXML(qryCtx);
insert into temp_clob_tab values(result);
DBMS_XMLGEN.closeContext(qryCtx);
qryCtx := DBMS_XMLGEN.newContext('select * from dept');
DBMS_XMLGEN.setRowSetTag(qryCtx,'departments');
DBMS_XMLGEN.setRowTag(qryCtx,'dept');
result := DBMS_XMLGEN.getXML(qryCtx);
insert into temp_clob_tab values(result);
DBMS_XMLGEN.closeContext(qryCtx);
RESULT
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<employeedata>
<emp>
<ENAME>FORD</ENAME>
<JOB>ANALYST</JOB>
</emp>
<emp>
<ENAME>MILLER</ENAME>
<JOB>CLERK</JOB>
</emp>
</employeedata>
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<departments>
<dept>
<DEPTNO>10</DEPTNO>
<DNAME>ACCOUNTING</DNAME>
<LOC>NEW YORK</LOC>
</dept>
<dept>
<DEPTNO>20</DEPTNO>
<DNAME>RESEARCH</DNAME>
<LOC>DALLAS</L[i]Long postings are being truncated to ~1 kB at this time.

Why do you want to get rid of the XML header ? If you want to concatenate the two values to produce a single XML document, I would recommend using XMLConcat or XMLAgg SQL functions.
