Hi,

I'm looking to save master record and mutiple related child records from 
multiple child tables for archiving purposes to xml.

Some Q's:
1. Would you recommend using attributes for field names or elements? (sorry 
if this has been answered many times in the past).
2. Regarding string/varchar data - does these need to be encoded prior to 
saving? (ie. every field)
3. Regarding text blob data - does these need to be encoded prior to saving?
or do people use CDATA instead?

Any other tips/links especially welcome (esp. delphi-specific).

Thanks,
Tom
