Hi All, I'm looking for a "getting started" tip on an XML project. I'd like to publish some XML documents from a relational schema (this is a reasonably complex mapping, not one-table = one-document). I'm new to Oracle's XML offering and from my reading so far there seems to be a lot of overlapping tools and facilities (or possibly just lots of different names for the same things?!) I've come across XDB, XDK, SQL built-ins like PATH and XML* functions and also various DBMS_XML* packages. I'm not asking for hand-holding but would be very appreciative of some advice or where to actually start! What tool / feature should I be reading about and using for producing complex relational -> XML mappings? Many thanks for any advice Charlotte __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Tired of spam? Yahoo!
