adding my two cents: I've done some research into this, since we had some clients who asked for it, wrote my own, which relied on MS Word styles, and concluded that this particular piece of software cannot be used to interact with XML documents of some complexity. Full respect paid to to argument about the huge gains of bringing XML functionality to word processors, but I don't see that we can use MS Word for, say, advanced graphics. It's an altogether different game. So, I think going for a pure XML editor is the only way to go, except of course in cases where you produce XML at the complexity degree of XHTML. /Dimitris -----Ursprungligt meddelande----- Från: Williams, Tim [mailto:twilliams@m...] Skickat: den 7 juni 2001 13:00 Till: 'xml-dev@l...' Ämne: RE: MS Word as XML editor? I saw a brief once by a guy from i4i and they produce a product called S4/Text. I've seen couple attempts at making an XML editor out of Word and most I've seen rely on the use of 'styles' which most of my authors don't use anyway. This S4 product seems to only use Word as a presentation/ui while it as a complete xml parser running in the background. http://www.i4i.com/biz_s4text.htm --tim -----Original Message----- From: Oleg A.

Hello All, would you please provide any information on using MS Word as XML editor (ideally like FrameMaker+SGML)? Any links, ideas, addon software? Thank you in advance.
