I am looking at a large XML file that has multiple P.O. documents in it. Available from the creator of this file is a DTD file that describes what the data is about, and like most DTD's it shows all the fields and their start and stop control sets.
Is anyone aware of a way to code up a VB module to utilize this DTD, pointing to the actual data XML, loop through the data multiple times, and create multiple text files out that are readable P.O.s.
I know this sounds far fetched, especially with the multiple documents all in one data file.
I have experience in using VBA to link to Outlook and Winfax to create automated e-mails and faxes. I'm just not sure that VBA is the route to go rather than VB.
Any help would be appreciated
Thanks
 
The standard mechanism to transform XML into any other text format is XSLT.
