Re: merging xml files


merge xml
Pank,
The more general problem of merging two files requires matching up 
corresponding elements at each level in the tree structure. You might 
like to look at the 'full context' delta generated by DeltaXML - it is 
in effect two XML files merged in one, but with the 'origin' of each 
item identified, and it is trivial to generate a merged document from 
this (we can provide the XSL). The hard work has been done by DeltaXML!

In any case, you can use the free online comparison (see end of email) 
to check your results.
