Walked into work this morning and heard my designers complaining about how they had a rush job to get out the door and how they each would take part of the list of a couple hundred name badges to layout.

Of course, thanks to your group and Jims meeting we had a PERFECT example for using XML with InDesign. Just took us about an hour to get the Excel list into a usable format and me to fumble through teaching the designer what I knew of InDesign, for just one designer to complete the job that several were going to do in several hours.

Pass my thanks onto Jim!

Also, is he doing a camp this weekend in Atlanta? I mentioned it to my designers and after seeing how the XML helped so much they would be interested in something like that. If nothing else I think they'll be looking forward to the next meeting you put on.
