Hello.

I understand that filemaker pro has 2 proprietary XML formats. however, it's not clear to me whether I can convert a sql generated xml file to filemaker pro's xml. Is this possible?
 
The short answer is to use XML stylesheets to transform the document. You should have patterns in the XSLT that recognize every major element in the SQL XML document and "map" those to the Filemaker XML format.

Sorry I can't be any more specific but I don't have Filemaker or any knowledge of its XML schema. You should be able to find the standard at FM's site.

I used to be happy programming. Now I'm miserable project planning. Hey, at least the money's good.
