okay - i have downloaded the latest release candidate and have 'reviewed' the documentation (www and xdocs) - a tremendous improvement over the earlier version, but no surprises there (you guys have been busy!!)
i used xmlspy earlier but was not 100% satisfied so i will look at the netBeans IDE and see what that's all about. before i go further, is there one area that needs attention ? alan ~-----Original Message----- ~From: Aaron Knauf [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] ~Sent: Sunday, December 22, 2002 5:33 AM ~To: James Users List ~Subject: Re: Documentation ~ ~ ~As far as XML authoring tools go, I use netbeans.
