Hi Wendell, Thanks again for the additional information. Sorry for my delayed response. I tried to get additional info, but unable to obtain so far. So, to answer some of questions: >are they really not "technical"? Not exactly. Mixed lot. But XML and its technology are new to them and moreover I found a resistance to learn or look beyond their own technology and hence I mentioned non-tech to make it easy to the list. >What sorts of applications do your non-technical users already know and like to use? What operating systems are they running? Some are from academic background who adds details to via UI - the db being oracle but they don't have to worry about db. I know these people often copy paste things from word doc etc., that include bullet points etc. and so whatever diff sort of stuffs go into the db. There are two tech people who look into oracle, running in UNIX server. I was told that they use some oracle function to specify what fields are to be extracted (as XML) and that internal function delivers the XML output - in tech terms this turned out "not to be an XML" due to content issues.. Regarding editors, I think they are now happy with notepad++ and I have anyway suggested other options discussed in the earlier threads, incl your last one. I think their problem seems more of internal issue. The oracle guys want the academics to enter correct data and take ownership. But everyone (except the oracle guys!) understands that that is not going to happen anytime soon, if at all it happens. So, the internal clash of who take data cleaning responsibility somehow ended up with "XML-XSL" as the target. But I think they now had consensus to look from all front, mainly oracle side to see a way to filter out unwanted entities and chars. So, pretty much resolved I would say. And you are right that the discussion did resulted in some interesting informations. Thanks again. Kind regards.
