Re: xml-into

So how are you trying to access the data?

What does your XML-INTO look like? Specifically what options have you specified?

Regardless your DS is wrong - at least for your original example. It should have looked like this.

If you'd post the XML you are actually working with and the statements you are using we could get somewhere.

D loads ds qualified
D dim(999)
D Shipper 20
D Consignee 20
D Pickups dim(999)
D LikeDS(Pickups_T)

D Pickups_T ds Template
D pickup 20a

Sure,
Here is my latest test....I basically started over to get a test working
first and then move to using an actual customer xml file.

DShippers ds qualified
D dim(999)
D Shipper LikeDs(Shipper_t)


D Shipper_t ds qualified
D based(template)
D name 20a
D addr 20a
D city 20a
D state 2a
D zipcode 5a

Can you share your DS definition with us? It probably just needs a minor
tweak.

Well it doesn't blow up LOL, but when I tried that I get nothing in any of
the fields...

I think I may have found my answer... If I make that subfield in the
DS an array it should allow for multiples...

I've been working with the xml-into in some testing, but I don't see
a clean way to handle an xml doc that has multiple fields, here is an
example of what I'm talking about:

<loads>
<shipper>ACME Metal</shipper>
<consignee>Derringer Steel</consignee>
<pickups>
<pickup>Norfolk</pickup>
<pickup>Omaha</pickup>
</pickups>
</loads>

When I have multiple loading points or stop offs I need to figure out
a way to handle them, without knowing up front the number of pickups
or stops....

I had created a data structure to just import the data into which
works for simple xml docs but not when I have elements that allow for
multiples...

Suggestions?
