XSLT is a general purpose way to transform XML documents. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XSLT
The IBM "XML Toolkit for z/OS" includes the command-line (or batch) XSLT tool "Xalan". Like most XSLT processors, Xalan has two inputs: the original XML document and a "XSL" (XML Style sheet) document and the output is another XML document. There are examples of how to run XSLT on z/OS on p. 61 of the z/OS XML Toolkit User's Guide: http://www-03.ibm.com/systems/resources/ixmza291.pdf XSLT is a little intimidating at first, but it is not nearly as hard as it looks. See for example the Wikipedia sample: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XSLT#Example_1_.28transforming_XML_to_XML.29 Kirk Wolf Dovetailed Technologies http://dovetail.com On Mon, Apr 30, 2012 at 12:13 PM, Ron Thomas <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi , > > We have XML file that is send by the customer, we need to alter the XML > file and send it back to 3'rd party .
