6. Double-click the encoder options property. When prompted for a 
value for the 
rowNodeKey property, type datapacket/row[@id='?id'].
This property identifies which node within the XML file will be treated 
as a record within the data set. It also defines which element or 
attribute combination makes the row node unique, as well as the 
schema field within the DataSet component that will represent it. See 
“Updates sent to an external data source” in Using Flash (in Flash, select 
Help > Using Flash).
In the sample XML file, the 
id attribute of the datapacket/row node 
is the unique identifier, and it will be mapped to the DataSet 
component’s ID schema field. This is defined with the following 
expression:
datapacket/row[@id=’?id’]
