Abstract

Methods and apparatus, including computer program products, implement techniques for accessing elements of structured source data. Sample data that is capable of being represented as a hierarchy of elements is received. A graphical representation of the hierarchy of elements is presented. User input is received selecting one or more elements in the graphical representation of the hierarchy of elements. A template structure is defined based on the selected elements. Source data is accessed according to the template structure.
