There are now two new Workflow activities, that take us forward in our aim of ensuring that common workflow scenarios can all be implemented without using code.
The Database activity allows you to read or write from a database directly from a workflow, and is fully transaction-enabled. The Expression activity allows you to initialise variables, execute simple expressions and execute Xpath expressions again without writing code.
Both new activities are available in version 1.3.0.20 - let me know if I can assist you in using these.
