in thread Copy XML file, write new attributes and move the old files.

there are just 2 things i need to alter.

First of all, the files are read from a directory, so i'd have to have that readXmlDir sub, and second, It's not the database that needs updating, its the file nodes that need their attribute changed so it matches with the database. This is because we get XML from different servers and they all have their own ID's for the Element names.

other then that, this is exactly what i was looking for.
