An XMap can transform any input XML document whose elements match the input schema hierarchy into an output document with the hierarchy of the output schema.

The following image shows the XMap editor:

The XMap editor contains input and output XML schemas. Drag and drop between the schema elements to create mapping statements.
The XMap editor grid shows mapping statements. Use the grid to manage and edit the mapping statements.

An XMap uses mapping statements to define how to transform an input schema element to an output schema element. You can drag from a node in the input schema to a node in the output schema to create a link. When you create links, these are mapping statements.

The XMap editor shows the mapping statement in the grid. You can edit the mapping statements in the grid.
