Hi Allen, XSLT is only useful if you are transforming from an XML format. You are going to have to use another mechanism to transform from non-XML data sources. Something like DataJunction should do the trick. Regards John Maughan Cape Clear Software -----Original Message----- From: Kuhn, Allen [mailto:Akuhn@xxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: 01 August 2001 17:30 To: xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: xslt and edi question I am a software developer working for a business to business exchange. We are working on integrating our trading partners to the exchange using Commerce One's xCBL XML. To do this we also need to convert data from the format used by our trading partners (OAG, EDI, flat files, etc). XSLT appears to be a good solution for this challenge. A good portion of my work will include converting EDI documents to xCBL. I have also seen mappings of EDI formats to xCBL and OAG. I also currently have to translate a flat file (with delimiters) to xCBL. I realize I have more work going from non-XML data fields, however I'm assuming this can be done. Is my assumption correct, that non-XML "data" documents can be converted using XSLT. Any clarification, or additional advice would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for your time and consideration. I am also subscribing to Mulberry's user group, to post this there. Thanks again.
