IXIASOFT TEXTML Server

IXIASOFT, the provider of TEXTML, a powerful native XML database, has created the XMLSpy Integration Kit to enable the use of TEXTML Server as a repository for XML documents for editing within XMLSpy. The integration of XMLSpy and TEXTML Server enables users to redirect XMLSpy's "Open", "Save", and "Close" operations to a TEXTML Server document base directly from within XMLSpy through the use of XMLSpy's 3rd party plug-in architecture.

Using the TEXTML and XMLSpy Integration Kit, XMLSpy users can easily add a document from a file system to a TEXTML Server document base, retrieve documents from a TEXTML Server document base, lock and edit a document then save it back into the TEXTML Server document base, browse a TEXTML Server document base using a file system-like dialog box, and much more! The TEXTML Server has many document management administration features including access control to customize viewing and editing rights within applications, versioning control, and document validation.

Microsoft XML for SQL Server 2000 (SQLXML 3.0)

This is the latest version of the Microsoft XML for SQL Server 2000 package, also known as SQLXML, that enables developers to bridge the gap between Extensible Markup Language (XML) and relational data. You can create XML views of your existing relational data and work with it as if it were an XML file.

XMLSpy fully supports SQLXML extensions to XML Schema to define mapping between XML and relational data in SQL Server 2000.
