You can download Xerces from Apache or JAXP from Sun. Both of these come with example programs that can be just compiled and run. They also contain some sample xml files. I suggest you start from there and learn by experimenting. Cheers! ------------------ Ajith Kallambella M. Sun Certified Programmer for the Java�2 Platform.

Ajith, Do you have any opinion on the different parsers available? Do you know any discussion on JRanch or anywhere else that explores this?

Here is a perormance comparison matrix for various parsers tested with validation. Eventhough the data is quite old, I'm sure this will give you an idea about what to expect. DOM and SAX Put to the Test

It is likely that Sun's JAXP package will be made part of the standard Java release, so you might as well learn that one. Bill
