Readable XML files
 

Quick potted history:

I've exported our policies from Network Associates EPO 3.6.1 into a series of XML files, but I want to be able to show what the settings are from those files.

You can obviously import them into Word and view them as code, and into Word 2007 and get into the murky World of XML schema, but I can't see a way of importing them into Word (or similar Office app) and be able to READ them in an understandable format suitable for documentation.

I've looked into XML converters but these simply don't appear to work and I can't find a schema within EPO that allows the XML files to be readable.

If anyone has any ideas how to get these exported files into a format that I can use it would be appreciated.

Have you tried importing in to excel ?

you need to read up on XSL to format them into a more flat structure.

i've just written a dedicated XML parser for my own needs and it's a bastid :|

Why didn't you just use Java and xerces / xalan. It's easy then :)

As above, I'd probably use XSLT for that job...

i didn't know about that, but having looked at it the DOM is pretty much the same as MSXML3 - which I used.

Not sure if this will
