Thease are great examples. Can someone give me fully documented data files from which to try to construct such examples? By the way, I'm not sure whether embedded XML is within the scope of DFDL--it gets insanely hairy. But the others are exactly the kinds of things that the core standard must either cover or have an extension mechanism that covers. -- --- Robert E.
