Hi Joe,

Thank you for the information. I would never have thought of Dreamweaver, but I will certainly take a look at it, as well as XMetal, XMLSpy and Arbortext.

I appreciate that you took the time to mention schemas and transformers. I suppose this is why I keep hearing about 'DITA' as a possible choice for technical writers using XML.

The problems I am trying to solve are:

* a lot of reusable content that is not being reused and has become out-of-sync
* a lot of custom guides and help files desired as our cilents tend to pick and choose modules in our application
* a lot of custom information as our clients often received information tweaked for their specific instance of our software
* simplified translation
* simplified single sourcing of pdf and help materials as well as editable source material for internal clients.

I appreciate the help!

Barb
