Everything previous to MX that I did that involved XML I do with MSXML. I've got lots of examples, ups and usps among them, but I don't know if they would be applicable. I'm still not sure why you need a parser...
If all you need to do is load an file from the HD, edit it, and save the results, and you have total control over the format of the file wddx may work perfectly for you. Saying COM is heavy on the server is a over generalizing it to the point of it being FUD. A hello world com object is going to be pretty fast no matter if it was programmed by the latest VB hack to get their MCSE or a C++ veteran. MSXML would be one of the heavier COM objects though. -- jon mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Wednesday, October 16, 2002, 10:11:58 AM, you wrote: RRNR> well, COM, I have heard can be pretty heavy on the server....
