This section provides instructions for updating the your-quotes.xml document using the Grid tab of the XML Editor. The Grid tab is useful for displaying structured data. It is a convenient way to view a document that contains multiple instances of the same type of element, for example.
A complete list of the videos demonstrating Stylus Studio's features is here: http://www.stylusstudio.com/xml_videos.html.
To update XML document using the Grid tab:
1. If it is not already open, open your-quotes.xml.
