Hello,

 

I wonder if there is a way to convert a SAS Dataset into an XML file which complies with the XSD provided by an organisation?

 

I found a way on the web to convert a dataset into an xml file but it does not guaranty that the obtain XML file complies with the provided XSD file.

 

Therefore, imagine that I have a XSD file and a Dataset and that I would like to combine this information in order to obtain an XML file that fulfill the organisation standard,

 

Is there an expert who could help me with that issue?

 

Regards,

I believe you would need to use an XMLMAP in your libname statement to control XML generation.

You can use the XMLMapper to create such a map from an XSD.

I haven't done more than a bit of "playing around" with this but given that an XSD can describe much more than simple tables, I would expect that there are limits to what XSD's the XMLMapper can convert without manual intervention.
