XML is meant to be a very very flexible data format. Might be able to import it into access or openoffice, and see it as a table layout, but expecting a non custom app to make it look like PMs probably won't happen.

Can you view XML file just like how you view a website with an internet browser?

As far as I know, yes.Originally Posted by Tran
Excel (latest versions) can also read XML.

Thanks Tosa, I never knew that before! It works with my Excel 2003...now I don't need to download those XML viewer anymoreOriginally Posted by TosaInu
By the way, I am still wondering whether or not there's a way to view those Private Messages exactly like how I view them with internet browser? I mean if you open XML file with Excel, you'll still see the [QUOTE] and [B] tags as they don't really do anything there.
In PM box I see this option:
Download all Private Messages as :
XML | CSV | Text mbox
What's the different between XML, CSV, and mbox? Are they being shown differently? Or are they WYSIWYG similiar to viewing them in internet browser? I'm not sure if someone really understand what I mean, but I hope someone does.![]()

Hello Tran,
I didn't knew either, until I saved a Worksheet as XML during a dorming moment and couldn't open it at home (Excel 2000).
I'm pretty sure that you'll continue to see those tags. Those tags are understood by the forum and replaced by HTML content. Mail clients do not have that (not the same).
There are quite a few bits about the PM system that I don't like/miss.

I've often wonder previously about XML, but now I understand the XML concept. Thanks for clearing up these, Tosa! At least now I know I can view downloaded PM box more "attractive" with Excel (in fact, with "extra features"), instead of those horrible XML viewer which (in my opinion) do nothing except giving endless non-sense codes.

Hello Tran,
There's another method: mbox. It's possible to import into an e-mail client then.
