Modifying XML File Properties

Use this procedure to modify the properties of an XML file.
  1. Right-click the XML File icon and select Properties.

    The system displays the XML File Properties dialog box.

  2. To create an entity, select the Entities tab. See Creating an Entity for more information.
  3. To modify the output options for the XML file, select the Output tab. Otherwise, continue with step 5.
  4. On the Output tab, specify the following:
    • whether the system generates a prolog and/or document type declaration
    • public ID (if applicable)
    • system ID (if applicable)
    • how the XML elements are output to the file
  5. To specify an extended rule for the XML file, select the Loop Extended Rules tab and define the rule. See the Application Integration User Guide for more information on extended rules.
  6. To specify that each decimal point in your data is defined and generated as a something other than the default period, do the following:
    • Select the Decimal Point tab.
    • Select the Define Decimal Point check box.
    • In the Decimal Point Character box, type the value you want to use as a decimal point—for example, a comma.
    • Click OK. You must click OK, even if the delimiter fields are empty, to reset the delimiters.
  7. Click OK.

    The system saves your changes and closes the XML File Properties dialog box.
