<snip>Author-IT looks like a great product but I believe it's not based on XML in any way, which would rule it out for Andrea's situation.</snip> AuthorIT *IS* based on XML - it's just that the XML structure is hidden from user view. Since v4.0.437 you can import and export XML files (see Release Notes for 4.0.437 at: http://www.author-it.com/docs/html/releasenotes/index.htm). I've not done this yet (nor had a need to), so I can't comment at all on what it does or how it does it or how effective it is.
