Re: RPG > XML conversions

["Michael Ryan" <michaelrtr@xxxxxxxxx>]

Sure...anytime. I'm wondering if they want to store their data in XML
files rather than physical files. There's a lot to be not said for
that. XML is a pretty good way of exchanging data, especially between
disparate systems. However, if all your data was described and stored
using XML, you wouldn't have a relational data base.

I'd be happy to get on a conference call with you and your client if
you want. Gratis of course...
