I was actually able to get the xml to pull. I had to go a little different route than what I found in the help files, but it appears to be working now. Now I'm working inside the Story Edit mode to arrange my info. After that I export the xml from Indesign and it appears to be ok. I was editing the XML in Dreamweaver, but was getting inconsistent results and found it is easier to format the xml inside Indesign as it is pretty particular about how it likes to see this code. It's working ok, but is a pain formatting some of my more in depth tables that contain quantities and pricing. It is a tedious process, but at least I am able to pull data now. I think the key is to continue to format within Indesign. In some respects this is easier and in others a pain. Once I got my tags applied I went in and edited the styles. Now I'm just formatting.
