Hi All,

I'm trying to set a simple structured app so I can read in xml and apply 
formatting, somewhere I am missing something as I only see two dita and one 
xdocbook apps available. A few times I've seen a whole list of about 20 and 
cannot figure out where is the problem.


I make a new EDD in Frame and it validates. It is flat:


EDD Version is 12.0
Structured Application:
Do not create formats on import.
Element (Container): Reference
Valid as the highest-level element.
General rule: <ANY>
Element (Container):  Title
General rule: <ANY>
Element (Container):  Subheading
General rule: <ANY>
Element (Container):  Command
General rule: <ANY>
Element (Container):  Name
General rule: <ANY>
Element (Container):  title-label
General rule: <ANY>
Element (Container):  show
General rule: <ANY>
Element (Container):  data
General rule: <ANY>
Element (Container):  pre
General rule: <ANY>
Element (Container):  Name2
General rule: <ANY>


Then I use StructureTools to save as a DTD, selecting <no application>:


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

<!--DTD for Reference. Typically invoked by
      <!DOCTYPE  Reference  SYSTEM
    "C:\Program Files 
(x86)\Adobe\AdobeFrameMaker12\Structure\xml\SCPI\DTD12.dtd">
-->


<!ELEMENT Reference  ANY >

<!ELEMENT Title      ANY >

<!ELEMENT Subheading ANY >

<!ELEMENT Command    ANY >

<!ELEMENT Name       ANY >

<!ELEMENT title-label
                     ANY >

<!ELEMENT show       ANY >

<!ELEMENT data       ANY >

<!ELEMENT pre        ANY >

<!ELEMENT Name2      ANY >



I also create a blank FM file and import elements from my EDD. All of these 
files are saved in the program directory specified in my DTD.



Now I will open the Structured Application Designer with Blank Application, I 
will set the the file paths to my DTD, EDD, and scpi-template.fm files, give it 
a name and save.


Now I will try to open the xml file. I do not know what needs to be in the 
header, but that's my guess. I've also tried it without the path (just 
"DTD12.dtd:


<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE Reference SYSTEM  "C:\Program Files 
(x86)\Adobe\AdobeFrameMaker12\Structure\xml\SCPI\DTD12.dtd" [

<!-- Begin Document Specific Declarations -->


<!-- End Document Specific Declarations -->

]>

<Reference>
<Title>Commands</Title>
<Subheading>SYSTEM Commands</Subheading>
<Command>
<Name> *CLS  </Name>
      <title-label><show> Title: </show></title-label>
      <data> Clear Status Command </data>
      <title-label><show> Description: </show></title-label>
      <data> <pre> This command clears all status data structures in the device 
(registers and error queue)
and forces the Operaton Complete state to Idle.</pre> </data>
      <title-label><show> Parameter(s):</show> </title-label>
      <data> none </data>
    </Command>
</Reference>



Frame offers only the three structured apps, not mine, so I'm lost.


I've done this many times and a few times I was able to see my app, but I had 
specified the <reference> element in lower case and frame seemed to be 
complaining about that and would not open the file.


I know I need to add a lot more to my EDD and rebuild this, I just want 
something simple to work and I just cannot get there.


Thanks for any insights.
