LDD Today article - XML import - not working any ideas?

dont know if this is a general problem or something i’ve got set wrong.

i’ve been going through the xml article in ldd :-

but i’m having a problem with the xml import function. importing file “newitems.xml”

using the import logger :-

<fatalerror line='3’column=‘2’>Unknown database element child element : item

here’s the xml :-

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8" ?>

This does not help you much, but I pasted the XML from the forum into a file and imported it into a database without any problem. Whatever is wrong must be somewhere else.

did you parse with the LDD artice or another db ??

I copied the xml from my Notes 6.5 M2 client, pasted it in jEdit (Notepad would not be any different), and saved it as a file. Then I imported it using LotusScript code in a test database: a NotesStream, a NotesDatabase, and a NotesDXLImporter. I got two new documents in the database. I have not read the article. It looks interesting, but long :wink:
