Well Raul, when you use XML native databases (since 1999 I guess, at least) you have to learn the proprietary query system they have, since they existed before the xquery standard was officialized. I think of Tamino, the "x-query" it uses is close to "xquery", and it will be closer to xquery with next release next year. As for Xindice, I only had a quick look at it, it seems to be close to the query standard too. Managing an NXDB is not so different from a relational database. Indeed, in this world of growing xml use the data format you get when querying helps. But when you think your system off, you have to think in terms of xml structure, unlike relational tables. I personally barely used relational DB, and a little NXDB, since I'm still young (graduating within a few months). Just my 2 cents, don't despair finding people you need, google will help you ;-) Babs -- website : www.babsfrance.fr.st ICQ : 135868405 ________________________________________________________________ Etudiant: Wanadoo t'offre le Pack eXtense Haut Débit soit 150,92 euros d'économies !
