Hi John,
To do the above 3 things, would've meant editing about 5000 lines out of my
25000 line file. I'm not an XSL wiz by any standard, but I came up with
this solution:
* Create XSLT file that processes the above 3 GUIDS and simply removes the
element where the attribute value contains or is the GUID in question.
* Open it up with Notepadd++ and use the friendly Macro "Remove Blank Lines"
for that blank lines that the XSLT processing leaves behind.
I downloaded MSXSL command line utility from Microsoft
(http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=2FB55371-C94E-4373-B0E9-DB4816552E41&displaylang=en)
To use it, in a command prompt: D:\>msxsl Original.wxs Cleanup.xslt -o
NiceAndClean.xml
I'm including my XSLT file (Cleanup.xslt) in case anybody else wants to use
it:
Cleanup.xsl
