Can you be a bit more specific? :-s

Variables:

xml - XMLPort
stream - InStream
f - file

Code:
CLEAR(xml);
CLEAR(stream);
CLEAR(f);
f.OPEN('c:\booorntobewiiiild.xml');
f.CREATEINSTREAM(stream);
xml.SETSOURCE(stream);
xml.IMPORT;

Note that in 4.0 (I not set tested in SP1) XMLPort does not communicate it properly if a record already exists, so I found it mostly useless.

I've found xml ports very usefull and time saving tool. You can use it to bring data into a staging table. You can control the PK by incrementing the PK. Once the data is in the table. You can do all the processing you need.
