Hi Michael ,
Thanks for your interest, With xml-data i mean a data-dump from a SQL
database. Where records becomes rows and fields becomes columbs. MS Exel
can flawless open this xml-files.
The xml structure depends on the Table of the database but mostly its
something like:
<?xml version='1.0'?>
<NewDataSet>
<Table>
<id>1</id>
<linkid>76497</linkid>
<TextBox>ANC</TextBox><Type>Week</Type>
<Formaat>Executive - 148x210mm</Formaat>
<Formaatuitz />
<Kaft>ik heb reeds een kaft</Kaft>
<email>a...@pmg.be</email>
</Table>
<Table>
<id>2</id>
<linkid>76502</linkid>
<TextBox>SAF</TextBox>
<Type>Dag</Type>
<Formaat>Executive - 148x210mm</Formaat>
<Formaatuitz />
<Kaft>ik heb nog geen kaft</Kaft>
<email>s...@pmg.be</email>
</Table>
The StarXpert import filter clould handles this dumps at condition that
"all" fields (also empty radio buttons etc..) where represented by a tag.
Hope it helps
Fernand

:-) with no source code ? if so, hard to deal with.
Its not the Extension who is faulty, its simple a lack of XML
import for Calc in LO and OO .
We import lots of styles and dialects of XML - what would really help
is a well-formed report: what kind of XML do you want to import ? where
is it specified ? is there an example set of files etc. ?
Just hoped to find here a coder who can/will make this happen or can
rewrite the StarXpert java Code into a nex etxtension.
Well, importing some sort of XML sounds pretty trivial to me - we could
make it an easy hack, if it is a popular dialect, and there are good
docs I guess. Can you file a bug with all the relevant details, and
reply to this mail with the number ?
Thanks,
Michael.
