hi! i have created a software-project called :::eater on sourceforge: * a GUI-frontend for ant * task-modules for SQl->XML->HTML https://sourceforge.net/projects/aeater/ PURPOSE: automation of reporting and content-management by utilizing a common batch-like language (ant). easy to use Graphical-User-Interface - looks like a 'wizard' additional task-modules for processing SQL(JDBC)->XML->XSLT->HTML. 'sql2xml' allowes nested queries (for 1:n-relationships) future plans: write interactive task-modules like: enter password dialog branches (option-panes) text/xml-editor open webbrowser for preview maybe you want to add it to your External Tools and Tasks. norbert
