Oracle SQL - XML Builder [ was : Is this Impossible !!]

Hi ,

I tried the Oracle's SQL - XML utility and it does what i want.  Except a few things.

I generated the following XML file as a result to a query to my oracle database.

<ROWSET>
 <ROW num="1">
  <SPNAME>Huntington services Company             </SPNAME>
  <CUSTPERMID>123456789123456     </CUSTPERMID>
  <CUSTLOGINID>jamesb              </CUSTLOGINID>
  <FIRSTNAME>james </FIRSTNAME>
  <LASTNAME>Bond </LASTNAME>
 </ROW>
 </ROW>
</ROWSET>

The ROWSET and the ROW tags were introduced by the builder itself. I would like the document to look like :

<CUSTID>
<SPNAME>My Own Business  Services Company  </SPNAME>
  <CUSTPERMID>123456789123456     </CUSTPERMID>
  <CUSTLOGINID>jamesb              </CUSTLOGINID>
  <FIRSTNAME>james               </FIRSTNAME>
  <LASTNAME>Bond                </LASTNAME>
 </CUSTID>

This is very important because this xml file will be sent to the client who will "validate" it. Since ROWSET and ROW are not a part of standard message format we use... an exception will be thrown.
Is there any way to customize the output from the builder so that it conforms to a predefined DTD ?

Thanks,
Abhishek.
