to navigate to an XML file and select it.

5. In the Output URL field, optionally type or select the name of the result document you want the XQuery to generate. If you specify the name of a file that does not exist, Stylus Studio creates it when you preview the XQuery.
6. If you want Stylus Studio to store paths relative to the XQuery path, ensure that the Use relative paths option is checked.

9. If you want Stylus Studio to capture performance metrics, enable the XQuery Profiler on the Profiling Options tab. See Profiling XQuery.
