Re: xml-into help

Looks pretty straightforward. Something like this.


dcl-ds OrganizationDetail qualified;
FamilyTreeMemberRole LikeDS(FamilyTreeMemberRole_T) Dim(4); <— See note
StandaloneOrganizationIndicator char(nn);
ControlOwnershipDate char(nn);
ControlOwnershipTypeText LikeDS(ControlOwnershipTypeText_T);
end-ds;

dcl-ds FamilyTreeMemberRole_T qualified;
FamilyTreeMemberRoleText LikeDS FamilyTreeMemberRoleText_T;
end-ds;

dcl-ds FamilyTreeMemberRoleText_T;
DNBCodeValue char(nn);
data char(nn);
end-ds;

dcl-ds ControlOwnershipTypeText_T;
DNBCodeValue char(nn);
data char(nn); <— This is where "Privately owned” goes
end-ds;


XML-INTO will need options datsubf=data if using the names shown in my example.

If there are not always exactly 4 elements of FamilyTreeMemberRole then add count_ FamilyTreeMemberRole with a definition of (say) int(5) to the OrganizationDetail DS and add countprefix=count_ to the options.

Replace nn values with whatever lengths you need.


Note this has NOT been tested but it should be close enough for you to work it out.

P.S. It would have been nice to see you make an effort at coding the DS and _then_ come here for advice on any issues. But then I’ve spent way too much time stuck in traffic jams today so maybe I’m just being crabby.
