I have a sample XML file generated with the user interface of an application, with just few typed data and I want to add few thousands more. Perhaps using Excel and then generate an xml file, if this is possible. What is the best way to do this? I have downloaded the oXygen XML Author, but it doesn't seems to be friendly enough and also not cheap. Is there an easy way to do this? | ||

Do the nodes have subnodes or attributes? I think I looked at this in the past _http://www.tucows.com/preview/304529 | ||

It is a language synonym file, something like man > male woman > female work > employment, job How would you create satellites.xml file? The link software is still not what I need. But thanks anyway.  | |||

My System: DM 600-S, AB IPBox 9000HD, Moteck SG2100, Fracarro Penta 85 dish, + some puters | You can save an excel file as .xml. I dont know how useful the output file would be though. Probably the best approach (If you are going to use excel) would be to create a simple xml file with a few lines of what you want to include, then open it with excel and add all the data. | ||

I created a file in Excel (attached). Saved as a .csv Opened in Notepad Code: <,start,>,,,, <,male,>,man,</,male,> <,female,>,woman,</,female,> <,work,>,employment,</,work,> <,work,>,job,</,work,> <,work,>,career,</,work,> </,start,>,,,, Code: <start> <male>man</male> <female>woman</female> <work>employment</work> <work>job</work> <work>career</work> </start> If you know all the node names and they are repeated you could use a lookup sheet to generate a list for column B/ column F values and save having to type them each time. | ||
