Using the URL Builder

The URL Builder utility lets you connect to a relational database server, select a table or view, and render that object as an XML document. You can use this feature, implemented on the URL Builder tab of the Open dialog box, to open a new XML document anywhere in Stylus Studio - in the XML Editor, the XQuery and XSLT Mappers, and so on.
