    My optimism knows bounds, and within them is InfoPath's ability to solve my problems.

    After studying all day yesterday, it appears that InfoPath will solve all my problems.

    I believe I've begun to solve my problem, so in case anyone has had similar problems with learning XML, I'll post it here.Use a WYSIWYG to create your stylesheet if you are not an ace with HTML code. I used Dreamweaver to write my code for me. Copy and save the code for use as your style.I didn't select CSS because I remember reading that it has some limitations, but I can't remember what they are.Cheers.

    I have been provided with a schema. Now I need to figure out a way for a Q&A person in a manufacturing plant to enter data on a form that does not yet exist. I have to make that form. I don't only need to make an xml file; I need to display an xml file that accepts user input. I think what I need is XHTML... anyone think that's correct? For example, take the tutorial's example above <note.xml>. I need an xml form that a user can actually enter information between the tags, not an xml document that just shows a note.XML must be used, accoring to a contract.I just can't seem to learn how to make an xml document for data entry. It's the interactive part that gets me confused. I would think that an Excel spreadsheet would make sense, or an HTML table, with each cell following the rules of the schema, but as soon as I start thinking about someone else needing to "fill out" the document, my head starts spinning. For example, the Q&A person is going to walk up to a PC and open...open what? A Web page? An Excel spreadsheet? A .txt?I am so confused.

    Thank you for your reply!If my schema is located in a local folder, do I show the path to that local folder as the location?For example:<notexmlns="http://www.w3schools.com"xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"xsi:schemaLocation="C:\Documents and Settings\projectus\My Documents MySchema.xsd">(I am very new to XML, and need to learn quickly at work. I have been provided with a schema from a client, and need to record our information with XML.)

    I've studied the tutorials on w3schools, and elsewhere. The one thing I keep missing is how to associate an XML file with its Schema.Here is the tutorial's schema:<?xml version="1.0"?><xs:schema xmlns:xs="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema"targetNamespace="http://www.w3schools.com"xmlns="http://www.w3schools.com"elementFormDefault="qualified"><xs:element name="note"> <xs:complexType> <xs:sequence> <xs:element name="to" type="xs:string"/> <xs:element name="from" type="xs:string"/> <xs:element name="heading" type="xs:string"/> <xs:element name="body" type="xs:string"/> </xs:sequence> </xs:complexType></xs:element></xs:schema>And the following is the tutorial's XML document:<?xml version="1.0"?><note><to>Tove</to><from>Jani</from><heading>Reminder</heading><body>Don't forget me this weekend!</body></note>I am missing something so embarrassingly fundamental. Please help.

    Howdy - I'm still learning how to ask the right questions, and do it correctly...Stylesheets: If I don't much like any stock stylesheets that are built into Epic Editor, can I create one in FrameMaker or Word, and save the file as .style or as .sgml or .txt and then use that document for my stylesheet?My first goal is to create an xml document that will accept input from the Q&A department.Thanks in advance,Projectus

    I was just asked to implement XML where I work. We have Arbortext with Epic Editor and Architect, no Interchange.Thousands of part numbers, plus their accompanying descriptions, etc, are stored in various databases in various departments.If, and that's a big "if," I can get all the data in one place (a repository?) to tag it all, where would the best place be? Is a repository just a database? Does one work better than another for this purpose? Really inexperienced,Projectus.
