it seems to be that the xml datasource ignore empty fields. why
example:
< xml version="1.0" standalone="yes" >
<Head>
<ID>121234</ID>
<Title>Hi</Title>
<Text></Text>
<Amount>3443.90</Amount>
</Head>
Only ID, Title and Amount appearing in the resultset.
any suggestions

again a problem with xml datasource extension

Instead of using autodetection you can specify explicitely what you want in the query
<Query>
...
<ElementPath> Head{ID, Title, Text, Amount} </ElementPath>
</Query>
