Nessus (xml) to Excel

Does anyone have an idea how to convert this easily?  I am clueless on this front.  I have this huge Nessus scan, but I want to convert it to something I can easily work with.  I would love to have a spreadsheet that listed the workstation and/or IP and compare it to the vulnerability.  I have linux and open office available to me.

Per:

Run the scan. Save the results into an NBE file and import the file
into Excel as a plain text file with "|" separators.


Best of luck!

Javajws,

   The XML output is already complete.  I could wait until we run it again adn resave it I suppose.  It just takes 2 days for Nessus to finish.  How do I import the file into Excel as a plan text file with "|" separators.  I have never done that before.  I am also going from a Linux Nessus scan to Windows Excel.

Thanks.
