I have a Component table in SQLServer 2008 R2 that has a PK ID field and another column of type XML. In that XML column I have XML that looks like what you see above. For each row, I want to modify all of the nested Section blocks so they each have two additional Elements. This is what I've tried and it only inserts the new elements into the first Section block...but not the other two.

DECLARE @MaxFeatures XML

 SET @MaxFeatures = N'<MaxAllowableTorque>0</MaxAllowableTorque>
            <MaxAllowableForce>0</MaxAllowableForce>'   

 Update Component   

    SET XMLDetails.modify('       
    insert sql:variable("@MaxFeatures")           
    after (/Component/Sections/Section/Length)[1]       
    ')

You can only insert into one place in the XML at a time so you need to do it in a loop.

Update the nodes one at at time and exit the loop when there where no updates made.

declare @MaxFeatures xml

set @MaxFeatures = N'<MaxAllowableTorque>0</MaxAllowableTorque>
                     <MaxAllowableForce>0</MaxAllowableForce>'   

declare @I int 
set @I = 1

while 1 = 1
begin
  update Component
  set XMLDetails.modify('       
      insert sql:variable("@MaxFeatures")           
      after ((/Component/Sections/Section/Length)[sql:variable("@I")])[1]')
  where XMLDetails.exist('(/Component/Sections/Section/Length)[sql:variable("@I")]') = 1

  if @@rowcount = 0
    break

  set @I = @I + 1
end
