Title: To Buy, or to Build? That is the q...
Without seeing a sample of the resultant document, my first
recommendation would be to use XSLT to transform your documents. Perhaps
you can post a sample result?

OK, OK, that expression WAS a little overused.
Anyway...
Dear XML Masters,
I need your expert opinion on the following
question.
The task: updating versions of my own XML
documents, Question #1: Can I find/buy
something ready to use, or do I have to write a little tool?
I need to {add and replace} {names and values} of
{elements and attributes}.
For example, my document would have something
like
<Level1> <Level2> <Element1
attribute1="attribute1ValueA"> element1ValueA <Element1/> <Element1
attribute1="attribute1ValueB"> element1ValueB <Element1/> <Level2/> <Level1/>
To convert an older version of this kind of
document to a newer version, I need to be able to add attributes or whole new
elements, or replace (which would include "delete") Element1, attribute1,
attribute1ValueA or element1ValueA.
Notice the elements are nested, and can be
repeating (like "Element1"). I mentioned this since I heard some of the tools
wouldn't handle it.
Question #2: If I do write it, I think I would need
to use instruction/mapping statements similar to SQL statements,
right?
Thanks for your help in advance! (and I need the
answer ASAP =) )
