Frequently Asked Questions

What root and row tags should I use?
Use meaningful names that describe your data. For employee data: root='employees', row='employee'. For products: root='catalog', row='item'.
Can column headers contain spaces?
Spaces in CSV headers are automatically converted to underscores in XML tag names since XML tags cannot contain spaces.
