Hi all,
I have a problem with a transformation from xml to abap. My XML file (taken from a pdf file) is

Any help?

Your XML is strange, it looks like a mix of pdf form content (xfa) and identity transformation (asx).
Could you explain more ?
Anyway, I tried to find out the errors (not only cx_st_match_element, that was just a catch missing), it works with the following program. Here are the main issues I have found :
- always catch exception class cx_st_error when you use simple transformations (it contains cx_st_match_element and all other simple transformation exceptions)
- xml "asx:abap" and "asx:values" in your input XML are useless, they are only used by identity transformation ("ID"); you may keep them if you want, but I advise you to see why they are in the xml !
- Use same case in your tags (if xml contains in the transformation so that it corresponds to the input XML
- I renamed all abap names with prefix ABAP_ so that to clearly differentiate xml tags and abap field names (so that it is more easy to understand, for every sdn reader; I hope it will help as I didn't find many threads in the forum).

Hi Sandra,
I have a similar requirement like, I need to convert the Internal table data into XML format. Could you please reply on this. I have more than 10k records and 20+ fields in internal table.
Thanks In advance.
