RE: [xml-dev] To conver XML to EXCEL

["Hanson, Jon" <jhanson@lehman.COM>]

you can either generate a csv (comma separated values) file and import that
into excel, or write a com automation client which progammatically creates
an excel document and then writes the data directly into the worksheet
cells.

the former is simply a case of creating a .csv file looking something like:-

apple,20Sep2001,3.141592
banana,1Apr2001,2.7
pear,,6.9

etc. this will obviously only work if your xml data is of this form, i.e.
one or more tables.

the latter requires understanding of the excel automation object model. it
would be a lot easier to implement in VB if you have that option. you can
use the microsoft msxml parser from VB to read your document.

a third option might be to generate a html table representation of the data
and import that into excel, though i've never tried it.
