    how to use multiple boxes with repeated elements?

    is there any way to have repeating data formatted into more than one box?

    e.g. with the following data

    [code:1:7440c19d58]<objs>
    <obj>
    <numbers>81.10.35</numbers>
    <title>Mosaic-glass bowl</title>
    <info>Greek, 2nd–1st century B.C.</info>
    <credit>Gift of Henry G. Marquand, 1881 (81.10.35)</credit>
    </obj>
    <obj>
    <numbers>91.1.1343</numbers>
    <title>Glass bowl with ribbed body</title>
    <info>Greek, 3rd–2nd century B.C.</info>
    <credit>Edward C. Moore Collection, Bequest of Edward C. Moore, 1891 (91.1.1343)</credit>
    </obj>
    </objs>[/code:1:7440c19d58]

    I would like to put one obj per page (i.e. there should be as many pages as there are obj elements) and on each page have two textboxes: one containing the 'numbers' element of an obj and another containing the rest of the elements of the obj.

    dragging a single element (e.g. 'numbers') into its own separate box obviously repeats 'numbers' of every obj within that one box.

    dragging the entire structure into a box repeats every obj in order, which is almost good enough. have tried using \b but it does not seem to do what I want.

    suggestions please?
