XPATH and Receiver Determination

Question

In Reference to forum thread : Conditions in  Xpath (Receiver determination)
Suppose I have MT as
MT_Pickfile
   |_Header
   |_Body
   |_Trailer
And i need to check;
(field3 = "100" or field3 = "200" or field3 = "300" ) and(field5 = "AA" or field5 = "BB" or field5 = "CC")
field3 is in Header and field5 is in Body
I tried giving
/p1:MT_Pickfile/Header[(field3 = "100" or field3 = "200" or field3 = "300" )] and /p1:MT_Pickfile/Body[(field5 = "AA" or field5 = "BB" or field5 = "CC")] EX
It doesnt work. But then if both field3 and field5 are in Header then it works (as had been the case in the above mentioned thread which Stefan Grube replied to) i.e. to say
/p1:MT_Pickfile/Header[(field3 = "100" or field3 = "200" or field3 = "300" )] and [(field5 = "AA" or field5 = "BB" or field5 = "CC")] EX
Can anybody put in their suggestions ?
Thanx in Advance,

Hi Shabarish,
It is not possible to have <i>and</i> or <i>or</i> outside the brackets <i>[]</i>.
Try following:
/p1:MT_Pickfile[(Header/field3 = "100" or Header/field3 = "200" or Header/field3 = "300" ) and Body/field5 = "AA" or Body/field5 = "BB" or Body/field5 = "CC")]
Another idea:
Write two lines in receiver determination (use insert expression):
1. line:
/p1:MT_Pickfile/Header[(field3 = "100" or field3 = "200" or field3 = "300" )]
2. line
/p1:MT_Pickfile/Body[(field5 = "AA" or field5 = "BB" or field5 = "CC")]
Hope that helps
Stefan
