extract data from xml file and send to database table

[carlos flamenco]

hi,
I have to extract certain values (dates,id's names) from an index.xml and send the values to a table in a database.
The values appear in the xml file as:
Date="Date_value"
iditem="id_value"
or as
<name>name_value</name>
What would be the best way to go about this?
The xml file is quite large and will be queried every few minutes or so, also there is quite a bit of redundant information in the file.

This would better be answered in the XML forum. Take a look at what you can do with XSL and SQL.
