The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Multipart XML Maniputlation and SQL Insert

Asked by pkaleda in Extensible Markup Language (XML)

Tags: ,

I have a unique situation.  I am going to be grabbing various XML documents from another website run by www.sec.gov.  I have already built the code to find the paths of each file I need to them import into my SQL database.  Here is the issue, the XML documents has a high level tags for <ownershipdocument>  then there are various that need to be put in for each record.  Then the document can have multiple tags with <DerivativeTable> and <NonDerivativeTable>.  Some of the subtags share the same tag names under the higher level tags.  

What I want to do is for each of these documents to create multiple records in my SQL Table with the individual names, addresses and document type then just one of the sections for the <derivativeTable> and <NonDerivativeTable>.  So the insert would be like this:

Person, address, document type, nonderivativeSection1
Person, address, document type, nonderivativeSection2
Person, address, document type, DerivativeSection1
Person, address, document type, DerivativeSection2
Person, address, document type, DerivativeSection3

I am integrating this into an ASP page using VBScript so that once I have provided the links that need to be imported, it would read through them all and when finished, the original set of links in the tempDB would be removed.  Here is a sample of the XML file that I will be pulling from ftp://ftp.sec.gov/edgar/data/99302/0000891839-04-000128.txt .  If you notice in the <nonDerivativeTable> there is only one section of <nonDerivativeHolding>.  In the <derivativeTable>  there are 3 sections of <derivativeHolding>.  What I would need is for the NonDerivativeHolding and the 3 DereivativeHolding sections to create a seperate record in the SQL table with all of the data above the NON seciton repeated.  

Please help.
