I thank you all very much for the links. They don't seem to do what I need, however. Maybe I wasn't specific enough. I have numbers in arrays and lists that I ultimately want to render as graphs. These data "evolve" as they pass through a pipeline of a network of "nodes" -- going from computer to computer, some being manned by people and some run by automated software agents. Each of these nodes has a role. The role of some nodes is to add data to one or more of the arrays, putting data values in certain pre-defined positions in the arrays so, when the data are ultimately parsed and rendered, the graphs are properly formatted. From these nodes, the data may manually input, sent directly via a database query, extracted from another XML document, input from a sensor via an I/O port, etc. Other nodes are responsible for evaluating/validating the data and changing certain data elements in the arrays and/or lists when necessary. Other nodes must perform computations on certain data, including data aggregation, statistical analysis, and other forms of data mining/analytics. These test results must be incorporated into the arrays in pre-determined positions and/or added to the lists. And finally the evolved arrays and lists are received by a node that must render them in multiple offline-interactive reports, as well as having the data available for ad-hoc computations/analytics. I want this process to be as quick and efficient as possible. I realize this is a tall order, and still wonder how XML can help. Thank you, again. Steve
