Larry, thanks.

 

On both points, agreed, and, alas, agreed.

 

Steve

Subject: [RBASE-L] - Re: Importing XML Data with Heterogeneous
Nodes/Records ...

 

<< 

Does anyone have any experience, tips, etc., about importing XML files
containing data from different but related record structures?

Unfortunately, there's a substantial logic gap between relational
databases and XML files (at least, when the XML file wasn't simply
created from relational data).

 

If the data is hierarchal but otherwise very regular you might (might)
be able to find a tool that will split it and allow you to load it as
CSV files.  Otherwise, you'll have to write a separate (non-RBase)
application to parse and convert the data.
