Altova MapForce 2008 Standard Edition is a graphical XML data mapping tool for converting XML data in one format to any another XML format. MapForce converts data instantly or autogenerates industry-standard XSLT 1.0 or XSLT 2.0 data transformation code for use in recurrent conversions. This visual data integration tool is so powerful and so easy to use that you will soon wonder how you ever managed without it. You simply open your source and target XML Schemas, drop in data processing functions from the customizable libraries, and drag connecting lines between the elements you wish to associate. To make your mapping even easier, MapForce automatically connects matching child elements. Popular functions come standard with MapForce (e.g., filter, concatenate, sum, average, replace, etc.), and you can create and save your own complex data processing functions. You can even add existing XSLT functions into custom libraries to utilize in mapping projects. Once a mapping is defined, you can instantly view and save the output. MapForce Standard Edition outputs an XML instance document compliant with the target schema in your data mapping design. It also autogenerates an XSLT 1.0 or 2.0 stylesheet for royalty-free use in regular or repeated conversions. MapForce supports advanced XML-to-XML transformations involving multiple input and output schemas, or advanced multi-pass data transformations (from schema, to schema, to schema, etc.), for which you just insert additional XML Schemas into MapForce and draw further mappings. Its unique graphical user interface and interactive output preview let you work in an intuitive, visual manner. MapForce Standard Edition is the easiest and most straightforward way to perform XML-to-XML data mappings, increasing the speed and efficiency of data integration projects. Give your data direction!
