Description: Microsoft Extensible Markup Language (XML) Core Services (MSXML) enables users to build XML-based applications that follow the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) XML standards.

XML Core Services is an application for processing Extensible Style sheet Language Transformation (XSLT) in an XML file. Based on Microsoft`s Component Object Model (COM), XML Core Services is essentially an application programming interface (API) to an XML parser and the XPath processor. The parser organizes the XML data into a tree structure for processing, and the processor converts the XML to Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) for display. This technology does not contain a database.

Note: MSXML is considered by Microsoft to be `in-band,` meaning this technology is contained in a clean install of the operating system and does not need to be installed on top of Windows.

Users must ensure sensitive data is properly protected in compliance with all VA regulations. Prior to use of this technology, users should check with their supervisor, Information Security Officer (ISO), Facility Chief Information Officer (CIO), or local Office of Information and Technology (OI&T) representative to ensure that all actions are consistent with current VA policies and procedures prior to implementation.
