[ISO/IEC 29500-1 1st Edition]

dataBinding (XML Mapping)

This element specifies the information which shall be used to establish a mapping between the parent structured document tag and an XML element stored within a Custom XML Data part in the current WordprocessingML document.

If this element is omitted, then no XML mapping shall be associated with the current structured document tag. If the parent structured document tag is of type rich text or document part gallery, then this property shall be ignored.

If this element is present and the parent structured document tag is not of a rich text type, then the current value of the structured document tag shall be determined by finding the XML element (if any) which is determined by the attributes on this element. If this information does not result in an XML element, then the application can use any algorithm desired to find the closest available match. If this information does result in an XML element, then the contents of that element shall be used to replace the current run content within the document.

[Example: Consider the following structured document tag:

<w:sdt>  
  <w:sdtPr>  
    <w:dataBinding w:xpath="/root/name/first" … />  
    <w:text/>  
  </w:sdtPr>  
  <w:sdtContent>  
    <w:r>  
      <w:t>old text</w:t>  
    </w:r>  
  </w:sdtContent>  
</w:sdt>  

This structured document tag specifies that it contains only plain text via the text element, and that it must be mapped to the element in the first Custom XML Data part which contains an element that matches the XPath expression /root/name/first. When that element is located, its contents must replace the existing run content in the document (for example, if its contents are new text, then the contents of the run for this structured document tag must be new text when the document is displayed. end example]
