Using Key=Value Characters

The Key=Value Character Region property allows you to set the separator for key=value pairs as seen in the input file. When Stylus Studio converts an input file to XML, it uses the value on the left side of the key=value character for the element name, and the value on the right for the element value. Consider the following input file:


Triumph Inventory,Year and Quantity Yr2003=24 Yr2004=12 Yr2005=15

If you set the Key=Value Character property to =, Stylus Studio creates the following XML document when you preview the custom XML conversion:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> 
<root> 
	<row> 
		<field>Triumph Inventory</field> 
		<field>Year and Quantity</field> 
	</row> 
	<row> 
		<Yr2003>24</Yr2003> 
	</row> 
	<row> 
		<Yr2004>12</Yr2004> 
	</row> 
	<row> 
		<Yr2005>15</Yr2005> 
	</row> 
</root>
