Well, what programming language do you want to use? Java 1.4 has
packages for SAX and DOM XML parsing and has data base connectivity too.
But of course XML parsers have been written in a lot of other
languages, and many scripting languages like Perl or Python provide
bindings to such parsers.

HI martin,

Thanks for the email

Basically I run a windows network, with sql server, mysql, plus other
databases.

Basically what I'm looking for is a app that can take xml pages and put
it into a odbc compliant databasel, without the going round the houses.

Basically collect data ----> save data in the database

Thats all

Regards
Andrew
