Remarks
Relative paths are resolved by the Base Path property. If the Base Path property is not set, the relative path defaults to the current directory.
Output from command execution is expected to be a valid XML document (for example, SELECT FOR XML queries, templates, and XPath queries).
By definition, XSL takes two XML documents and produces a third. One of the input documents contains the data, and the other contains the XSL processing instructions.
Unless specified in the XSL document, the output document has a default encoding of UTF-8. If another encoding is required, it should be specified in the XSL document.
If the Output Encoding property is specified and an XSL document is also specified by the XSL property, the encoding specified in Output Encoding overrides the encoding of the XSL document.
