copy/paste with awk

Hi everybody,

I have two XML files.
I am working on a script that could copy and paste the contents of the first xml file to the desired location in the second xml file.

Here is my first XML file.
Quote:
<Signal xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xmlns:xsd="XML Schema" xsi:type="ModulatedSignal">

<ModulationFreq>55555</ModulationFreq>
<Lengths>
<double>0.21425</double>
<double>0.43574999999999997</double>
<double>0.32475</double>
<double>0.31925</double>
<double>0.22075</double>
<double>0.10625</double>
<double>0.545</double>
<double>0.64825</double>
<double>0.20975</double>
</Lengths> <SigData>AAEAAgMEBQYABAAEAAQDAgUHBX8AAQgCAwQFBggECAIFBAMCBQcFfw==</SigData>
<NoRepeats>2</NoRepeats>
<IntraSigPause>92.769</IntraSigPause>
<ToggleData/>
</Signal>
This is the second XML file.

</IROutputLocation>
<DeviceName>Premiere</DeviceName>

The contents of the first file have to appear here.

</MacroAction>
</MacroActions>
</Macro>
</Macros>
</SchedulerState>
Finaly, I wnat to obtain something like that :

I think it is possible with awk but another solution will do it too.

Thanks, Ludo
