Avoiding Carriage Returns in XMLSpy

When editing and saving XML content in XMLSpy you should suppress the insertion of carriage returns, (they appear as ‘|’ in the Docbase). If these carriage returns exist in the file names, attribute names or values several features in Documentum may not function properly.

To prevent carriage returns in the saved file, follow these steps:

1. Open XMLSpy|Open Project with all your files
2. Go to Tools|Options
3. Set 'No Output Formatting' for all the elements that you want to see inline, without carriage returns. Especially important for Documentum are ‘object_name’, ‘dctmattr’ and ‘xsl:attribute’.
