Al,
Thanks for that lead. You can do the same thing even w/o Windows 95. Just go
to the SGML bibliography at www.sil.org/sgml/sgml.html and follow the links to
James Clark's home page and the free nsgmls parser. You could download the
DTDs from the Spyglass site an use them in conjunction w/ the nsgmls parser to
validate files. The Spyglass tool probably gives better error messages --
James' parser takes SGML knowledge for granted.
Best regards,
