This would depend on what version of SQL was implemented. Although it may not be provable this is most likely not true: XSLT is Turing complete, base SQL has been shown not to be Turing complete (SQL3 is supposed to be Turing complete, I don't know if this has been proven). Now if he's allowed to add in stored procedures than at least some versions of stored procedures are known to be Turing complete... -----Original Message----- From: E L [mailto:pappis3d@xxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Thursday, July 11, 2002 3:11 PM To: xsl-list@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [xsl] XSLT & SQL Someone told me that he can do *any* XSLT transformation in SQL. Here's the premise: any input XML document can be represented by one or more tables; likewise for the output XML document. The XSLT can be replaced with an SQL insert statement, selecting from the input and inserting to the output (e.q., any XPath expression can be expressed by a similar WHERE clause in a SELECT statement). I can see it's possible for simple document. Are there instances where this would not be possible? Thanks. XSL-List info and archive: http://www.mulberrytech.com/xsl/xsl-list
