<br>
Unfortunately ZIP archives can only be opened in the Archive Browser and cannot be mounted in the Project view to perform batch validations/transformations on multiple files. Note however that you can still perform validations, transformations and execute XPath on one file at a time by opening them(from the Archive Browser) in the editor and executing these operations there just like for any other file.<br>
<br>
There is a workaround(somewhat awkward) that allows you to perform batch operations on files from a ZIP archive. The problem with this workaround is that you have to individually add(link) the files from the archive to the Project.<br>
The workaround is as follows:<br>
1. Close all editors in Oxygen(to simplify things).<br>
2. Open the ZIP archive(File -> Open should open it in the Archive Browser)<br>
3. In the Archive Browser expand directories and and select each and all of the files that you want to add to the project. To open them right click(CTRL+click on the Mac) on a selected file and from the popup menu choose Open. All the selected files from the archive will be opened in a few seconds.<br>
4. In the Project view create a logical folder in the project root(or in another logical folder): New -> Logical Folder<br>
5. Select the newly created logical folder in the Project view, right click(CTRL+click on the Mac) on an editor tab from the editor area and from the popup menu choose: Add All to Project<br>
6. Now you can perform batch operations(validations/<u></u>transformations) on the files from the archive linked in the Project view.<br>
<br>
Let me know if you need further assistance.<br>

Dear all,<br>
<br>
I'm trying to process big data in XML<br>
<br>
This data is in XML files and I want to be able to mount the ZIP files directly in oxygen to be able to do validation and few transformation and XPath<br>
<br>
Can we do that ?<br>
<br>
Thanks <br>
