Creating an XML file

You can use any text editor, such as Notepad or TextPad, to create and modify XML files.

Note: Oracle suggests that you save the sample XML files that are delivered as part of the InForm installation media under a new name and edit those files. The files are available at: \\<Installation_Directory>\InForm \SampleStudy\Admin.

To create an XML file for MedML component definitions for administrative data:

  1. Create a first line that contains the xml version number. This string must be lower case:

    <?xml version="1.0"?>

  2. Add an opening and closing tag for the MedMLData component and include the appropriate version string as the value of the xmlns attribute:

    <MEDMLDATA xmlns="PhaseForward-MedML-Inform4"> </MEDMLDATA>

  3. Between the MedMLDATA start and end elements, enter definitions for the elements to install.
  4. Install study data definitions in the following order:
    1. SequenceType
    2. Sequence
    3. Right
    4. User
    5. UserImage
    6. Site, including references to users who serve as site contacts, if applicable.
