Hi all,
Rick isn't talking about using the Word XML document format in this
case. He is talking about using the MSXML Active X control that is
built into windows.
FrameScript can pass instructions to this control, which opens up the
ability to generate custom XML directly from FrameMaker,
Thanx to you both for the info!

MSXML is just an extension for programming languages. It provides
commands for opening XML files, finding nodes, adding nodes, that sort
of thing. Microsoft maintains it, but despite this it works pretty well.

Hi Scott,
MSXML is not a format but an XML parser/processor. It is very fast and
stable, and has a small footprint. I have heard even ardent Microsoft-haters
say that it is an excellent XML tool. Best of all, it can be controlled from
FrameScript. It is also free.

Hi Darren,
I think Scott Prentice has an application that does this; check
http://www.leximation.com. You could also use FrameScript and MSXML to go
directly from FrameMaker to XML, bypassing MIF altogether. If you are
interested in this approach, please contact me offlist. Thanks.
