Discussion
%XML_ELEMLIST_FIND looks for the first element with the specified name in an XML element list. If you want to find subsequent elements with that name, you must manually iterate through the list.
You can alternatively retrieve an element by its tag using %XML_ELEMLIST_FINDTAG or by its index position using %XML_ELEMLIST_ITEM.
This function is defined as ^VAL.
