l Export Config: Click to export the currently displayed properties of the PlanetPress Suite Workflow Tools action task.
The exported configuration can then be reused on other PlanetPress Suite Workflow Tools workstations.
Dynamic SQL tab
l Use dynamic values at runtime: Select to use a dynamic database connection string and/or SQL statement at run-
time. Check this box to enable the options included in this group (this disables the corresponding options in the General
tab).
l Parse normally: Select to interpret any backslashes included in the database connection string as back-
slashes. If this option is not selected, any backslash that is not doubled will be disregarded.
l Database connection string: Enter a variable connection string in this box. To do this you may begin by
clicking to create an ODBC connection string to the data source and paste the string automatically to this box.
Note that if a login name and password are required to connect to the database, a dialog box is displayed and
the information you enter is saved in the configuration of the PlanetPress Database action task. Another option,
if a database connection string (not a database path and name) was already entered in the Database Connection
tab, is ti simply copy and paste it to this box. Bear in mind that if the Parse normally option is not selected, any
backslashes included in the connection string that is not doubled will be disregarded. Once your connection
string is displayed in this box, you can edit it by adding variables or data selections.
l SQL statement: Enter your SQL statement. Remember that you may use variables and data selections in
your statement.
On Error Tab
The On Error Tab is common to all tasks. Details can be found on "Task Properties Dialog" (page 53).
XSLT Editor Action Task Properties

ument. The reason to transform an XML document into another XML document is simply to rearrange the information it con-
