Thank you for the quick response, actually the XML source really works.

However..

What I want to do, is compare two zope DB against each other, the purpose is to
generate a "third" DB with the most recent information of each two, you see
where I am going? Using Versions is not an option, since the version records
are "locked" and only one person can use them anyway.

Now my only question would be, is there a way to know in the xml output which
object is newer? I do not see date/times anywhere, but since the DB contains
that info, I guess that by modifying the export to xml program can give what I
need.. Any suggestions are really appreciated.

Thanks in advance,
