1) Flat File Data Conversion in Stylus Studio - Convert to XML is
Stylus Studio's new multi-purpose utility for integrating legacy data
of all sorts (EDI, CSV, Binary, etc.) into XML applications. This video
provides an overview of the tool and walks you through a sample CSV to
XML data transformation project. You can use Convert to XML to convert
individual files, or to build converters that allow you to open flat
files as XML documents anywhere in Stylus Studio. Once there, the
XQuery and XSLT skies are the limit:

8) Editing XML files Using Grid View - Stylus Studio's XML Grid View
makes it easy to visualize, navigate, and edit XML documents with
tabular (table-like) structures, including XML views of relational
data. Using the XML Grid View, you can perform advanced XML editing
operations like sorting, reshaping an XML document, renaming elements,
moving elements or attributes, and more:

9) Accessing Relational Data with the URL Builder - The URL Builder is
a quick and efficient way to extract data from a relational table or
view and render it as XML, and this video, in spite of its ranking, is
a quick and efficient way to learn how to use it. This demonstration
shows you how to use the URL Builder to create a DB-to-XML Data Source,
and how to reuse the data source to build an XSLT stylesheet:
