Liquid XML Studio provides an advanced XML Editor making it possible to easily author, edit, transform, debug, and validate XML documents. A rich text based editor provides syntax highlighting, well-formed validation, schema aware validation, auto complete/intellisense via XML Schemas, go to XSD definition, and much more. The XML document can also be viewed and edited in a grid/tabular view. Each element within the document can be pivoted allowing its children to appear as columns within a table. This makes it easy to import/export data from other data sources such as Excel and SQL Server. The text and tabular views can also be seem side by side in a split view making it easy to see the impact of changes made in the graphical view.
