Thanks This is the kind of thing I was looking for. I just found XML Generator at http://www.reboltech.com/library/html/xmlgen.html No luck yet finding Andrew MArtin's Rebol code at http://zen.scripterz.org. I confess I am ambiguous about XML in Rebol. It seems so unnecessary and verbose, but then that's typical XML - where the meta data overwhelms the core data. This xml-to-object seems like a good way to go, especially if I can get my head into the exccellent recent thread on 'Object Private Member'. I am needing to pass data to and from Flash5 interfaces. In parallel I am wondering about the overhead of XML versus using KISS text files. - Jason
