What you want to do is very, very, simple for anyone who knows how to configure XXE. However this kind of task should clearly not be performed by an end-user (e.g. an author, a technical writer). An end-user is just supposed to select menu item "Options|Install Add-ons", then select the add-on she/he wants from the list of available add-ons and finally restart XXE. If you send me a couple of valid RecipeBook sample documents (required to test a configuration), then I'll try to send you back a .zip file containing a production quality, packaged, add-on, which will be installable using "Options|Install Add-ons". This is not a big deal. It should not take me more than 1/4 hour to do so. > Harry > > -----Original Message----- From: Hussein Shafie > Sent: Friday, August 12, 2011 10:27 AM > To: Harry Bailey > Cc: '[email protected]' > Subject: Re: [XXE] How to use a dtd file > > On 08/12/2011 03:35 PM, Harry Bailey wrote: >> >> I 'm looking at that you sent me and I went in to see how to get >> XMLmind to >> look at it, I went to Writing a configuration file for XXE, I have a >> problem >> it says Create a subdirectory named example1 in the addon/ >> subdirectory of >> XXE user preferences directory.
