Beth BeggsSubject: Custom Conversion Definition Trouble
Author: Beth Beggs

Hello. I am a beginner in Stylus Studios Enterprise, XML, and XSLT. The Custom Conversion to XML tutorial and video seem simple, but I'm having trouble after I create and save the .conv file. My custom conversion file never appears under Custom Definitions. My guess is that I am not saving the files in the correct file location, but I don't know how to find the correct folder, since I do not see a "custom," "convert," or "definition" folder where the other converters might be located. I am attaching one of my .conv files for reference. Any help is appreciated.

Best,
Beth

That video must be out of date.
Can you provide us with a link to it, so we know which one to fix?

Since that time, custom XML conversions can be placed anywhere.
When you reference it, you can put in the full pathname of the .conv
file, like this:
converter:file:///c:/myconverter.conv?file:///c:/myinputfile.txt

Tony and All,

Believe me, I know how stupid this sounds. Where do I enter the pathname for my .conv file? I'm attaching a screen shot of the window where I should select the .conv file. I have been hi-lighting the "Custom" icon and attempting to alter the URI path. I cannot delete or overwrite it. The same thing happens when I select any of the converters. How do I by-pass this window or these options?

Best,
beth

Click in the space under the word "Value" and you will see an input
field. You can either type in the path there, or click on the little
[...] button that appears to use the File Open dialog.

Dear Tony,

Thank you so much! Of course, the solution was very simple. My .conv works like a dream--already worth the price of the software!

Best,
Beth
