Example 3: Marshal with Combine and Group
In Marshal with Combine Output (2), duplicate elements have been eliminated
from the XML output, but elements of the same type are not grouped together.
By modifying settings in the XML Structure tab, you can group the LineItem
elements together in the output file for the sample
project.
