[Resolved] Using regular expressions in assertions

Hi guys, I am new to SoapUI and using the free version. So far things have been going quite well and I made a few (contains and not contains) assertions to validate xml responses and they work fine...

Ok, I got as far now as using an XPath Match in SoapUI in which I am reading a value from the xml response.

Basically that looks like:

declare namespace ns1='...namespace...';
ns1:Node1[1]/ns1:SubNode[1]/ns1:ElementValue[1]

This returns the desired value. Final step is that I would like to catch this value into a variable which I would then like to compare to a project property.
I have been trying to define variables in my XPath Match but have not been succesful so far.

Could anyone please give me a short example on how to do this?

Thanks again a lot in advance!
