RE: XML in Oracle

Hi,

Yes...if you are in 8i..you need to install the XDK package from
technet...once done you may like to have a look at the dbms_xmlquery and
dbms_xmlsave packages...Lots of functionalities are there...for native xml
format storage you can store them in CLOBs...From 9i onwards still more
functionality has been integrated I hope..

Subject: [oracle] XML in Oracle


Hi All,

I need some info about Oracle's XML capabilities.
I have An installation of Oracle8i Release 8.1.7.0.0. Can Oracle store data
natively in XML format? Or can I get my query results in XML format (like
the "FOR XML" statement in SQL Server 2000).

Thanks a mill.
Brad.
