Converting XML to Microsoft Excel

Hi ccherry13,

You can downlaod the reference for Office2k since it's native HTML/XML

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/officedev/ofxml2k/ofxml2k.htm

All the sample code you need and a complete guide to the seperate Office components with their respective xml tree's

a few sample pieces from that reference

Example

This example shows XML document property elements specifying the authors, the company, the version, and when the document was created, printed, and saved.


><xml>
 <o:DocumentProperties>
  <o:Author>Nancy Davolio</o:Author>
  <o:LastAuthor>Robert King</o:LastAuthor>
  <o:LastPrinted>1999-05-13T01:33:34Z</o:LastPrinted>
  <o:Created>1999-05-13T01:32:34Z</o:Created>
  <o:LastSaved>1999-05-14T21:52:31Z</o:LastSaved>
  <o:Company>Microsoft Corp.</o:Company>
  <o:Version>9.2720</o:Version>
 </o:DocumentProperties>
</xml>

This example shows the contents of the filelist.xml file. It lists the main file, print.htm, and its two supporting files, img001.png and filelist.xml.



 <xml xmlns:o="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office">
  <o:MainFile HRef="../print.htm"/>
  <o:File HRef="img001.png"/>
  <o:File HRef="filelist.xml"/>
 </xml>


The following example shows the XML element in a cachedata.xml file. Five namespaces are specified: dt, rs, s, x, and z.



<xml xmlns:x="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:excel"
 xmlns:dt="uuid:C2F41010-65B3-11d1-A29F-00AA00C14882"
 xmlns:s="uuid:BDC6E3F0-6DA3-11d1-A2A3-00AA00C14882"
 xmlns:rs="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:rowset" xmlns:z="#RowsetSchema">
....
</xml>

There's also an article on how to do this. Check out http://www.xmlmag.com/upload/free/features/xml/1999/01win99/kc1win99/kc1win99.asp.

Use XML Spy and have it export / import data from datasources.
