Thanks for your help. I am so close to what I want.
The output that I want is an XML file. So I try:
reporter = Reporter.objects.get(id=10)
arts = reporter.article_set.all()
xmlout = serialize('xml',arts,fields=('date','reporter.name'))
However, it writes date but it does not write reporter.name into the
XML file.
Any help in this regard?
