Hi Koen, The reason I tend to XML is that I am planning to generate the merge data in Oracle Only since Oracle 12c plus there are some JSON functions So as I see it XML is kind of the standard in Oracle
Have you done something like I am planning to do in 4D Write? I am hoping for someone having already done this and saving me some pitfalls.
