Dwayne BordelonSubject: Need help with using XQuery in Stylus Studio to convert and transform flat file to xml
Author: Dwayne Bordelon

I have a tilde delimited file that I need to create an xml file. I have the conversion step done and some to the conversion done with xquery. I am stuck with removing duplicates. The source file(tilde delimited) can have repeating rows of customer information because there are two levels of information in the file. I am getting a result with the right representation, but I cannot keep it from repeating the customer info based on how many times it shows up in source file.


Unknowndropletter.prj


Unknowncustomer(1).xml


Unknowndropletter.conv


UnknownSales_Drop_Letter.xml


UnknownSales_Drop_Letter.xsd

I think you want something like this, where you group all customers and detail all dropped styles?

<ROOT>
<CUSTOMER_DELIMITER> {
let $input := doc('converter:file:///c:/dropletter.conv?file:///c:/customer.csv')
for $CustomerNo in distinct-values($input//PK_CUSTOMER_NO)
let $Customer := $input//CUSTOMER[PK_CUSTOMER_NO = $CustomerNo]
return
<PRIMARY_TABLE>
<PK_CUSTOMER_NO>{$Customer/PK_CUSTOMER_NO/text()}</PK_CUSTOMER_NO>
<NAME>{$Customer/NAME/text()}</NAME>
<ADDR1>{$Customer/ADDR1/text()}</ADDR1>
<CITY>{$Customer/CITY/text()}</CITY>
<STATE>{$Customer/STATE/text()}</STATE>
<ZIP>{$Customer/ZIP/text()}</ZIP>
{
for $droppedStyle in $input//CUSTOMER[PK_CUSTOMER_NO = $CustomerNo]
return
<DROPPED_STYLES>
<DROPPED_STYLE_NO>{$droppedStyle/DROPPED_STYLE_NO/text()}</DROPPED_STYLE_NO>
<NAME>{$droppedStyle/STYLE_NAME/text()}</NAME>
<YARDAGE_PURCHASED>{$droppedStyle/YARDAGE_PURCHASED/text()}</YARDAGE_PURCHASED>
<TERRITORY_NAME>{$droppedStyle/TERRITORY_NAME/text()}</TERRITORY_NAME>
<TERRITORY_PHONE>{$droppedStyle/TERRITORY_PHONE/text()}</TERRITORY_PHONE>
</DROPPED_STYLES>
}
</PRIMARY_TABLE>
} </CUSTOMER_DELIMITER>
</ROOT>
