So this may be a novice problem but I don't have enough experience yet to know how to do it using a Filemaker script.

If I can't do it using a FM script can I call program in another language from a FM script that can do it.

I don't have control over what is installed on the computers our software is run on so I'd like to do it without having to install yet another piece of software to make it work.

 

I need to take the XML created by FM Export and convert it into another XML file and save it to a specific location on the local computer.

I want to do this by taking the XML created by the FM Export execute an XSLT file on it and get a different XML file as output then save it.

This XML file will then be used to transfer data onto a piece of hardware attached to the computer using another interface.

 

Most of our customers run Filemaker Pro NOT Filemaker Server.

 

Thanks for your help!

If you use Export and choose XML you get the option of applying an XSLT to it during the export process, which will transform it to another XML format.
