If I understand this correctly, you need to:

1) First insert into ins1 that <values> "container" element.
2) Then copy the <value> elements from ins2 into the <values> you just added to ins1.

Something like this should do the trick:

<xforms:action ev:event="...">
    <xforms:insert context="instance('ins1')" origin="xxforms:element('values')"/>
    <xforms:insert context="instance('ins1')/values" origin="instance('ins2')/set/value"/>
</xforms:action>

I hope this helps,

Hello Alex,

Sorry for the incomplete data.

Insertion should happen during initializing events.i.e on page load.
And instance 2 may have some more elements other than value parallel to
value element. I need only value elements to be inserted dynamically on
model-construct-done.
Do we have any event raised by xforms: repeat? Or can we insert on model
construct done event. I tried it but it did not work.

<xforms:instance id="ins1">  
<data>                          
<item1>aaa</item1>                
<item 2>bbb</item2>              
</data>                            
</xforms:instance>                  

<xforms:instance id="ins2">
<data>
<set><value>val1</value><role>rrr1<role></set>
<set><value>val2</value><role>rrr2<role></set>
</data>
</xforms:instance>

Thanks,
Prameela.

Yes, you would do that xforms-model-construct-done.

<set><value>val1</value><role>rrr1<role></set>
<set><value>val2</value><role>rrr2<role></set>
</data>
</xforms:instance>

And what would the result be in this case?
