Abstract: A system and method validating entry of data into a structured data file in real-time is described. The system and method also described a real-time validation tool that enables a developer to create custom validation rules. These custom validation rules can include preset validation rules, which the real-time validation tool enables a developer to create in an easy-to-use way.

Abstract: A system and method that enables promotion of data from within a structured data file to a library is described. This system and method can also enable demotion of data from a library to within a structured data file. Further, this system and method can copy data from a structured data file, perform a function on the copied data, and promote a result of the performed function to a library.

Abstract: Validating data of and/or indicating errors of a structured data file using eXtensible Markup Language (XML) elements and/or XML Path (XPATH) expression are described.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer program products for management of data that is stored in a hierarchical format such as, e.g., a relational database, when the data is retrieved and manipulated using a schema-driven format such as, e.g., XML are disclosed. In one implementation a copy of the XML data retrieved from the database and is generated and each logical unit in at least one of the original XML data or the copy of the XML data is annotated in a manner that uniquely identifies each logical unit. For example, each XML node may be assigned a unique numerical or string identifier. As the data is manipulated, algorithms may be implemented to use the annotations to track changes to the XML data and to ensure that the manipulated XML data complies with one or more required data formats.

Abstract: XML elements and related processes for validation of XML data files is disclosed. These elements are used to specify validation rules that are used by a real-time validation tool to validate data in a node of an XML data file. These elements also are used to specify error messages to be displayed when a node is found to be invalid. Further, they are used to associate executable code with a node that can be executed when the node is modified.

Abstract: A solution is described that declares elements, attributes, and values that define a hierarchical data file or a markup-language document. The declarations by the solution are within the solution and include a presentation application and a markup-language schema from which the markup-language document can be inferred as having a structure based on the markup-language schema. Portions of the markup-language document are logically coupled with fragments of the markup-language schema. The presentation application, when executed, forms an electronic form containing data-entry fields associated with the coupled portions. The solution can include a manifest of all files that can be used for representing the markup-language document in the electronic form. The files also allow a user in input data into the one or more data-entry fields and control the validation of the data that the user inputs into the one or more data-entry fields.

Abstract: A method and tabular data stream format is provided for the transmission of tabular data between a client process running on a client computer and a server process running on a server computer via a network such as the Internet. The tabular data stream format, called the Advanced Data TableGram (ADTG) format, is ideally suited for marshaling tabular data in both directions between a Web browser and a Web server. A Web browser query is processed by the Web server retrieving tabular data from a database and converting the data into a Rowset. The Rowset, in turn, is formatted into an ADTG message. The ADTG message includes a Header section, a HandlerOptions section, a Row section, and an End section. The Header section includes data representing global parameters for a tabular data stream. The Handler Options section contains data representing parameters for controlling the processing of the tabular data stream by a process receiving the tabular data stream.
