Introducing XML Grabber

XML Grabber, is a utility that can read, parse and assist you to import hierarchical XML data into a relational database structure. This timely utility will be a Windows Desktop application, built on C# technology and its anticipated release date is October 31, 2005.

In the fall of 2003, a DataFast consultant was asked to write a reporting application that could import complex XML into a Microsoft Access database where it could be easily reported upon. While this process should have been simple, it was quickly determined that there are currently no tools for push-button import of complex data. The resulting application spawned an article describing the steps, but the process is still to complex and custom to be practical for simple, one time data transfers. XML Grabber will change that. Look for it in November.
