I'm experienced with Unidata, but relatively new to XML.  In short, I need to 
export a Unidata file to XML, and likewise later load XML data into said 
Unidata file.  We're on Unidata 6.1.4 if that matters.  For the sake of 
simplicity, we can assume all data fields in the Unidata file are single 
valued, so the XML structure is very simple - no nested fields, save the 
outermost ROOT and record tags.  The only wrinkle is that the XML field names 
don't match the Unidata DICT, so I know I'll have to have a mapping.

I need some advice on how to proceed.

1) From reading this list and the Unidata docs, I presume one route
is PrepareXML, OpenXMLData, ReadXMLData, CloseXMLData, ReleaseXML.  

2) Last night I stumbled across DBOTXML, XMLTODB but cannot find much in the 
way of documentation on these.

3) I see the many XDOM... routines, but this looks like overkill for my simple 
needs at this point.

Any advice and/or recommendations are greatly appreciated.
