Abstract: A method, computer readable medium, and system for processing a structured document are disclosed. The method, computer readable medium, and system include identifying a plurality of strings processed by a database, assigning an identifier to each of the plurality of strings, storing each of the plurality of strings and its assigned identifier in a table in the database, and utilizing the table during document processing.

Abstract: A method, computer readable medium, and system for storing a structured document in its native format in a database are provided. The method, computer readable medium, and system include receiving the structured document, generating a hierarchical node tree comprising a plurality of nodes, where the node tree represents the structured document, and storing the plurality of nodes in at least one record in the database.

Abstract: A system for associating information related to a component of a structured document that is stored in its native format in a database system includes generating a hierarchical node tree comprising a plurality of nodes, where each node represents a component in the structured document, and generating a path associated with each node, where the path follows the hierarchical structure of the structured document from a root node to the node. In each node, an identifier associated with the path is stored. A table is provided that correlates the identifier with information related to the associated path. The information applies to the component represented by the node.

Abstract: An improved method and system for processing a structured document stored in a database is disclosed. The method includes identifying strings that are processed by the database, assigning an identifier to each of the strings, storing each of the strings and the assigned identifier in a table in the database, where the table is a global database table, and utilizing the table to replace the strings with their assigned identifiers throughout the database, where the identifiers are used during document processing.
