Paul,

        
I've used oXygenXML before and if you can afford it, it
          will accelerate your content development. However, if you need
          a cheap (free) editor with "OK" XML support, use Eclipse which
          has XML support and a spell checker.

        
 

      
    I think youve missed the point here Dean, I want a WYSIWYG editor
    which can save as docbook format, not an Xml Editor

    
        
Regards,

        
Dean Nelson

              with DocBook.

              generally bad english.
