I recently found this post started by columbia about XML and Visual Lisp
http://www.theswamp.org/index.php?topic=525.msg6773#msg6773I downloaded the API and the sample XML document, tried it and this is what I get:
(vl-load-com) ;; to make sure everything is peachy with Active-X
(load "xml-api.vlx") ;; load up the API
(setq oSettings (xml-Get-XMLObject "c:\\dwgset.xml"))
#<VLA-OBJECT IXMLDOMProcessingInstruction 02402a40>
(setq oLayers (xml-Get-Child oSettings nil "Layers"))
nil
(setq oRegen (xml-Get-Child oSettings "DrawingVars" "RegenAuto"))
; error: ActiveX Server returned the error: unknown name: GETELEMENTSBYTAGNAME
Anybody know what it means? Can anybody help? I am trying to learn the whole XML file thing but am getting frustrated.
