[richard]

am i missing something or is the xml output wrong!!

The xml output by textpipe pro 7.0.7 is like this

Code: Select all

<?xml version="1.0" standalone="yes" ?>
<!-- generator="TextPipe Pro 7.0.7" -->
<!-- companyURL="www.crystalsoftware.com.au" -->

<!-- event="DTD start" -->
<!DOCTYPE lines [
  <!ELEMENT lines (line*)>
  <!ELEMENT line (field1, field2, field3)>
  <!ELEMENT field1 (#PCDATA)>
  <!ELEMENT field2 (#PCDATA)>
  <!ELEMENT field3 (#PCDATA)>
]>
<!-- event="DTD end" -->

<lines>

<line number="1">
  <field1>row1</field1>
  <field2>data1</field2>
  <field3>data3</field3>
</line>
<line number="2">
  <field1>row2</field1>
  <field2>data2</field2>
  <field3>data4</field3>
</line>
<line number="3">
  <field1>row3</field1>
  <field2>data3</field2>
  <field3>data5</field3>
</line>

</lines>

when it should be

Code: Select all

<?xml version="1.0" standalone="yes" ?>
<!-- generator="TextPipe Pro 7.0.7" -->
<!-- companyURL="www.crystalsoftware.com.au" -->

<!-- event="DTD start" -->
<!DOCTYPE lines [
  <!ELEMENT lines (line*)>
  <!ELEMENT line (field1, field2, field3)>
  <!ELEMENT field1 (#PCDATA)>
  <!ELEMENT field2 (#PCDATA)>
  <!ELEMENT field3 (#PCDATA)>
]>
<!-- event="DTD end" -->

<lines>

<line>
  <field1>row1</field1>
  <field2>data1</field2>
  <field3>data3</field3>
</line>
<line>
  <field1>row2</field1>
  <field2>data2</field2>
  <field3>data4</field3>
</line>
<line>
  <field1>row3</field1>
  <field2>data3</field2>
  <field3>data5</field3>
</line>

</lines>

Am I missing something?

The help file shows the xml correctly

[DataMystic Support]

There is nothing wrong with this XML.

We added the line attribute to help identify individual records. It should cause no problems at all to any correct XML processor.
