I am using the XML toolkit for the transform. I need to send the data to a third
party, who has a set format that
cannot be changed. I do not know what parser they are using (I will ask).
The XML source is as follows: (created by SQL Server 7 using SQLXML Web Release 2).
<root>
<VG_Submission>
<MemberID>95929</MemberID>
<SubmissionID>4279</SubmissionID>
[tags removed]
<VG_FieldValue>
<body>[long text removed]</body>
<VG_SubmissionPackage><PackageID>96</PackageID></VG_SubmissionPackage>
</VG_FieldValue>
<VG_FieldValue>
<body>[long text removed]</body>
<VG_SubmissionPackage><PackageID>105</PackageID></VG_SubmissionPackage>
</VG_FieldValue>
</VG_Submission>
</root>

Hi Chris
It would be good to see your XML source and the way that you're calling the
transformation. Do you have any particular need to create the document in
this format? All XML parsers that I know of (and definitely MSXML) will
treat
<foo></foo>
just the same as
<foo />
So it shouldn't make any difference to your application, unless compactness
is a key concern.
