Automatically creating Word files from XML and XSL files

T

Hi,

Each day we create about 200 XML documents in InfoPath all of which need to
have rich formatting applied in Word such as getting a table header row to
repeat on each page.

I know how to open the XML file in Word, apply the XSL for the relevant view
from InfoPath and then manually set the Word formatting but this is a manual
process and we need to automate it. What is the best way to achieve this?

My proposed solution was to find a server based component which would accept
an XML file, tranform it with an XSL file and then output WordML. Does anyone
know of such a component? The relevant WordML tags could then be
programmatically searched for and the correct formatting applied by a simple
find and replace.

Any suggestions or feedback on the above?

It's something that we need to find a solution for so if someone wants to
propose a solution they implement then we are happy to pay for it.

Thanks

Tim Metcalfe
