Changed (1)
State Form Definition - XML Header Tags
A new selection is added to the "Definition Options" field on the "State Form Definition" form, called 'Remove XML Declaration'. This gives a user the ability to exclude the "XML declaration" header tag that normally displays as the first line in the output of an "XML" type state form definition file
