Meaning of XPath.MATCH vs. XPath.SELECT

Hi,

This is propably a bit of a silly question, but is there a definition of
these two types of expressions available somewhere?

Thanks,

I believe that Xpath.MATCH is intended to be used for a MATCH pattern.
Definition is given in the XSLT Recommendation.  Xpath.SELECT is
intended to be a used for a LOCATION PATH.  Definition is given in the
XPATH Recommendation.

HTH,
Gary
