vb.net - Extracting Partial Information of XML -
i have lot of information distributed among tables in database (and must represented oop). need create text files different formats same data depending on request. idea create design require no coding if such formats change of added.
i thinking in using sort of xml magic trick accomplish have no idea how to. open new ideas.
there no magic tricks ;)
if create xml schemas database objects, render them xml. use appropriate xml transforms to, well, transform xml requested formats. read on xslt. still require maintain xslt style sheets each different type of transformation (say, xml html, xml csv...)
you aren't clear different target formats or intended uses of system. if formats simple , differ in columns displayed or order displayed in, create interface allows user customize resultant format. alternatively, create templating language.
