How to dynamically change the index value with SQL DML

Question

I am a beginner in XML with SQL. How can I specify index within an insert statement as below. The following statement gives throws exception with invalid path to update.

Did you check out this article. http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms175466.aspx

SELECT @myDoc       
set @myDoc.modify('       
insert Strong long lasting 
after (/Root/ProductDescription/Features/Material)[1]       
')       
SELECT @myDoc;

This assumes that the Material tag exists. Is the path (/xyz/abc) valid?

  
    
      1 year parts and labor
      3 year parts and labor extended maintenance is available
      Aluminium
      Strong long lasting
    
  

Also, test you current code with a literal instead of a sql:variable.

Again, please post the xml/code.

Thanks
